Gov’t urges Bangwato to forgive Masisi and Co

The Bangwato tribe is still healing from wounds of the past, which included the persecution of the Khama royal family and the denial of access to their main Kgotla in Serowe. All this happened during former president Mokgweetsi Masisi’s tenure, which was ended by the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) last October.

As the kgotla and the return of the Khama family reminded Bangwato of the past, Mohwasa told the tribe during retired Kgosi Kgamane’s farewell ceremony that they should forgive but never forget the unpleasant winds of the past. Mohwasa said he told Bangwato recently, during the funeral of the late minister Kgotla Autlwetse, that it is time for forgiveness.
