Ikalanga to dominate Domboshaba festivities

This was announced during a press conference held at the National Museum Kgotla in Gaborone on Tuesday. The objective is to promote the language of Bakalaka as this year's theme is: "Lulimi gwangu, mazwiikudzo angu," meaning 'my language my pride'. DCT members have however indicated that this should not prevent people from other language groups and cultures from attending the event as this could be a learning tool.

Speaking at the press conference, University of Botswana (UB) director of academic service, Professor Amos Thapisa said the idea of the Domboshaba festival was to promote Kalanga culture and "this cannot be done without promoting the language itself".
