A life well lived

Excellence means caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical and expecting more than others think is possible. Bogadi Judith Tsetsana Sefhako lived by these words and not only did she represent success, she defined it.

The nation came to moan her passing on November 21. The arts in traditional music and dance in particular lost one of its shining stars. Often described as a legend and pioneer in the local performing arts, Sefhako was born in 1951 in Molepolole.  She attended senior secondary school at Kgari Sechele and later graduated from Lobatse Teacher Training College.

She then started primary school teaching in the late ‘70s and spent almost three decades there before moving on to the Ministry of Sport and Culture in 1996.  There she worked as a Performing Arts Officer.

Exercise extra caution!

Unfortunately, petty thieves tend to be more vicious around this time as they also prepare for the festive season. Culturally, many Batswana go home for the holiday, and petty thieves are amongst those who go home. Burglaries, car break-ins, and attacks on unsuspecting pedestrians seem to be on the rise!That is not all, as scammers continue to take money from pensioners as well as other Batswana who may fall prey to their unscrupulous tactics....
