Local creatives unleash their talents at NAF

This year's competition is themed, "Recognising our cultural diversity and celebrating the freedom of our expressions". It had different categories such as mogolokwane (ululations), traditional instruments mainly Katara (guitar), stand-up comedy, drama, polka, dikhwaete, contemporary and traditional poetry, hosana, and tsutsube traditional song and dance.

Some of the day's highlight performances included the Tap n Clap, where Bana Ba Lesedi from Mogoditshane East, wearing a navy blue and white uniform, lit up the conference room with a spectacular performance. They sang the "Re Bone Lesedi" song. The choir leader's ability to decorate that melodious voice whilst also showcasing his dance moves won the hearts of the audience. They could not resist applauding and cheering the choir despite being told not to make too much noise so that the adjudicators could hear the message well. The choir's dance moves, voices, composure, and playing of instruments were simply spectacular.
