Strictly no skirts or earrings in Mhaladi's Kgotla

This is as per the Batalaote custom and Kgosi Mhaladi Oteng Mhaladi is very strict on this because he harbours a passion of restoring the culture and tradition of his tribe.

Some villagers, especially the youth take advantage of festive occasions to enter the Kgotla in jeans. During the recent Mascom Base Transceiver Station launch, Mhaladi requested to make an announcement in the right schedule of events. When given the chance he barked an order that those who violated the dress code must go back home and comply with the tradition. He only excused visitors who were coming to the village for the first time and Mascom employees because they were on duty.
