Motokwe, a village located in the Kweneng district, is embroiled in a bogosi dispute despite the recent inauguration of Batho Tshoso as the new village chief.

The feud on who should be crowned the village chief started after the former kgosi, Olebogeng Puleng retired back in 2016. Since then the village has not had a leader until Tshoso was appointed in December 1, 2018.

The village is allegedly divided over the matter as some want Kgosi Puleng’s son (Neo Puleng) to be crowned the new chief whilst others support Tshoso’s appointment. The dispute is believed to have been raging on since 2015 with a number of individuals trying their luck to take over the chieftaincy.

After each financial year, it painstakingly examines how public...
