Heritage Month: Let's start now

The Botswana Police Services have so far reported very few accidents and transgressions on our roads.  This is commendable and we hope the situation on our roads could continue to get better.  It would however appear that there was a lot of enjoyment on the cultural front.  Throughout the holidays, most Batswana have been talking about the arts and cultural events taking place in Gaborone during what has been dubbed the heritage month. There were final competitions in theatre, contemporary and choral music, traditional folklore, poetry, comedy and even non-performing arts like painting and sculpture.

Indeed there was something for everyone.  People were spoilt for choice.  The heritage events are proving to be popular among Batswana.  Many of the heritage shows in Gaborone were highly attended.  All seating space was taken hours before the shows started.
