The Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) has commended Kgosikgolo Kgafela Kgafela II and his tribe for the spirited fight they are putting into the restoration of their chieftainship.

UDC’s head of communications, Moeti Mohwasa has welcomed the Judicial Commission recommendations, and commended the South African North West Premier, Professor Job Mokgoro for accepting and asserting the power of Kgosikgolo Kgafela as the supreme leader of Bakgatla both in Botswana and in South Africa.
