"I do not know what to expect, nobody who comes from Serowe, has told me about it before, my son just said he was leaving for Big Brother, but I have no idea what that means," said the Ramotswa-based mother. Rapulana was one of the guests who thronged the Gaborone Sun to witness the start of the show on Sunday evening. Her role was not that significant though after her son's aunt was invited by Multichoice Botswana spokesperson to say something about the 24-year-old housemate.
