After going into hiding for over a year, "Kgosi George Moeng Masilo" has now teamed up with "Kgosi Nwanaamotho Kgosiencho Masilo" to fight the Bakwena chieftainship. A press release from the two "Dikgosi" states that there will be a Kgotla meeting at Goo-Ntloedibe Ward in Molepolole in which the Chieftainship will be discussed. The press release also invites all Bakwena in the country to the meeting as well as their cousins, the Bakgatla.

"The main objective of the meeting is to announce that Bakwena Chieftainship is now returning to its rightful heirs being Kealeboga Sechele II," reads part of the press release.
Moeng caused controversy in 2005 when he called a Kgotla meeting in the main Bakwena Kgotla to announce that he is the rightful heir to the Bakwena throne.  He was ridiculed and sent packing.  After that, he tried to call a Kgotla meeting in Ntloedibe ward. The meeting was a flop.

Contacted for comment, Kgosi Kgari Sechele III said yesterday that he was in the dark about the meeting.  He said that he had not been invited and that he was not going to attend even if he were invited. Sechele confirmed that after the Kgotla meeting two years ago, Moeng disappeared and the two of them have never met since then.
