E re ntswa monongwaga dipula di nele morago ga paka e e tlwaelesegileng, kwa Kumakwane go supa fa go kile ga nna le mekomakomane ya pula ka ditlhare le bojang di ntse ditala. Fa e ne e le maloba jale, go ka bo utlwala go tserema ga senyetse se itepatepantse le letsatsi le le suthugileng mo marung ka marang a a bogale jo bo gaisang le yone tshaka ya ga Shaka Zulu tota.

Motse o wa Kumakwane o ikadile kwa Bophirima jwa toropo kgolo Gaborone, dikhilomethara di ka nna masome mabedi le botlhano.  Ba le bantsi ba o itse sentle ka o tumisitswe ke lobelo lwa dikoloi  lwa mantshwabisi lo lo ratiwang bobe. Mme mo nakong eno, go rile tuu! Go bonala motho fale le fale.

Naname e e tlhatlogileng monyo ya Kwena, Kgosi Chomie Seboni a bo a tsweletse ka tiro tsa gagwe tsa letsatsi mo ofising fa setlhopha sa Kutlwano se kokota fa mojakong wa gagwe. A re amogela ka tsoo pedi go ka re lotlegela ka ditso tsa motse o, yo a tlhalosang fa o teilwe ina Kumakwane ka go ne go nna go le mesarasarane. Owaii! Mo nakong eno go setse lone leina fela ka jaana paka di fetogile pula di le boutsana.

Ke ka moo erile Kgosi Seboni a bona ekete morafe o tla a nyelela ke lenyora a bitsa mophato wa borre a o lebisa kgang gore tsela pedi go tsewe efe ka pula e ikganeletse mo marung. Ba dumalana ka mogopolo o le mongwe gore dibeela e ka tswa e le tsone di jesetsang banni mo kgobedung, ntateng ya dikereke tse di fetotseng molapo wa Kolobeng lefelo la kalafelo.

Morago ga go tshuba dibeela tse go setswe ditaelo tsa ngaka tsa setso morago, pula ya sarasara. Se se supa fa morafhe wa motse o o santse o tshegeditse tumelo ya Setswana ntswa dilo ka bontsi di nyeletse jaaka tiriso ya sekhonkhwane.

Kgosi Seboni o re tseela kwa ntle gaufi le terata ya kgotla go ka re supegetsa sekhonkwane- tshipi e e neng e itewa ka hamole go phutha morafe e e dingwaga di fetang masome matlhano.

“Se itewa ka hamole, ka 1972 ha ke le 11 years re ne re se itaya e le sone se bitsang batho go sena bo mokhanselara o a laletsa. Fa motho a utswile se ne se betswa mme ka bofefo morafe o phuthaganele kwa kgotleng go lala o disitse legodu le,” o tlatsa ka gore se ne se itewa ke banna ba lekgotla.

Go ya ka ditso tse a di utlwileng ka bagolo ba gagwe, Kgosi Seboni a re motse o o tlholegile ka ngwaga tsa bo 1800 ke wa Bakwena. “Dikgotla tse di kwa Molepolole di teng tsotlhe mo Kumakwane. Batho ba ba senang kgotla kwa Molepolole ke ba kgotla ya Masetedi ka bone ba tlholegile go tswa kwa Kurumane le ntswa e setse e le Bakwena ka le ngwao ba setse tsa Sekwena morago,” a tlhalosa.

Fela jaaka metse e mentsi mo Botswana, Kumakwane e simologile e le meraka le masimo. Kgosi o tlhalosa gore monnamogolo Kgabo ebong rraagwe Seboni e ne e le moruti kwa Kolobeng ka nako ya fa David Livingstone a tla a simolodisa kereke ya Lontone monogae.

Kgabo o ne a nna le moraka le masimo mme ya bo e le gone jaaka motse o gola. Ka ngwaga wa 1934 go ne ga bewa kgosi ya ntlha ya Kumakwane ebong Kenalekgosi Sebele yo o neng a busa go fitlhela ka ngwaga wa 1951. Morago setilo sa bogosi sa tsewa ke Seboni Kgabotelele go fitlha ka ngwaga wa 1974 fa a tla a se tlogelela Opelo Seboni Kgabo yo le ene a neng are ka 2012 a sutela Chomie Seboni.

Kumakwane o amangwa le ditso tsa dingwaga tsa ga Livingstone Lontone e na le tempele e kgologolo mo lefelong le. Kgosi Seboni o tlhalosa fa saka la badimo e le nngwe ya tsa ditso tsa motse o.

Ntle ga ditso, motse o o tlhabologile ka motlakase o teng, metsi a a phepa, tsa booki, thuto fa mananeo a puso a go tokafatsa matshelo a Batswana le one a tsweletse.//////

Editors Note

We return once more with another mouthwatering edition. We bring you the Miss Botswana 2026 as our cover story to encourage young beautiful ones out there that hard work and perseverance always pays.

Our youth need to know that their God-given talent can be utilised to earn them a living. Be it in sport, beauty pageants or any pursuit they wish to undertake.

Life is not always about having a white or blue-collar job, waking each day to sit behind a desk in an office or working for someone or some company. It is all about maximising every little opportunity we have to accomplish that, which we desire.

We also feature a story of the Botswana Sports Awards, which saw a young man of the moment, a 400 metre World Champion and a national records breaker, Collen Kebinatshipi become the toast of the awards night. He came out of the night as the biggest winner.

This edition also brings to you the Foot and Mouth Disease painful reality as the nation continues to grapple with having very limited supply of beef.

Lesotho Jazz Music artist, Budhaza once sang that he has never seen a feast with no meat (Mokete o senang nama, kere ha ke so o bone). The reality is that this disease has truly affected one of the nation’s staple foods, beef. Lets all do what is necessary to ensure it does not continue to become a thorn in the flesh (beef) of our beloved cattle-rearing nation. 

This edition also contains a solemn feature of a nation in grief following the death of its 3rd President, Dr Festus Gontebanye Mogae. The distinguished statesman was widely loved and appreciated for so many things that he was to Botswana and the world.

We see it fit to share with you his story and to help you find closure in this edition. Rra Nametso was laid to rest in Phomolong at the upmarket Phakalane Suburb in the North of the capital city, Gaborone.

In other news, we share with you stories of  Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional integration. We share a story of late former South Africa President and global icon, Dr Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela use of an airstrip in Kanye during the apartheid struggle.

We feature also a story about a monument built in Lobatse to remember Dr Mandela. So sit back and enjoy the read as well as many other interesting articles.
