Molapowabojang turns 100

This year marks the village’s 100 years of existence.  Although the merciless conqueror of the Mfecane era inhabited the area a lot earlier than the village came into being, this piece of history will forever remain part of it.

Just two kilometres north of the village, across the road from Kanye to Lobatse stands a small hill called Mosenekatse - a name derived from Mzilikazi.  It was here that a group of Amandebele under the leadership of Mzilikazi sought temporary shelter. The hill is strategically located and the Zulu break away group stayed at its top to spot the enemy from a distance.
