Mhalapitsa chieftaincy case on Tuesday

Some residents were left in limbo last Thursday when they came to the kgotla to hear submissions by the two families, only to be told that the case cannot go on as 'dikgosi' are attending to 'crucial' official business. They dispersed after they were told that the meeting had been rescheduled to tomorrow.

Michael Belebese from Moleejane, who claims supremacy over the royalty of the Sekolotos, believes that history indicates that the Sekolotos are not the rightful heirs, as their forefather, Gotshwanetse Sekoloto, was only ordained as a regent.
