"I remain your Kgosi"

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

Recently appointed Bakwena Deputy Royal, Kgosi Oletile Makgasane has warned anyone harbouring ambitions to his chair that he is still the Kgosi even though he has transferred to the Bakwena headquarters in Molepolole.

Makgasane was on Monday, together with Bakwena Kgosi, Kgari Sechele III briefing his tribe on his appointment as Bakwena Deputy Kgosi.

"I want to emphasise that I remain your Kgosi. I am not abdicating. Perchance anything happens to me, you must know that I have three sons. My firstborn is Tshepho Makgasane. Second and third are Motswakhumo and Leruo. Let this thing be clear. My brother is only holding fort for me and my children," he said.
