La tla letsatsi, ya nna gangwe fela, a thanya a sotlhometse mo gare ga naka tsa nare. Fa a re thaa! a fitlhela a setse a disa poo. Mmakaseterata a mo tlhaba ka ngwaga tse thataro ka molato wa petelelo. Ya re fa a ntse a le mo kgologelong segakolodi sa gagwe sa mmontsha bokao jwa botshelo jo a ntseng a bo betla.

A lemoga fa e se ntsha e le kgologolo, maikotlhao ya nna ngwana wa morago, monna o bolawa ke se a se jeleng! Tsatsi le a neng a bulelwa ka lone, tlhaloganyo ya bo e setse e gamogile metsi, sa gagwe sebe a dumela fa a se duetse, jalo a thwantsha monwana a sa tswa go o mona, a ikana ka badimo, a kgwa a bo a thelela gore e ne e le lantlha e bile e le la bofelo ga a kitla a le baya mo kgolegelong gape.

A bopilwe sesha dilabe di setse le kgolegelo. Fa o sa dumele gore kgologelo e aga motho, botsa Ditiro. Ke mang yo o neng a ka akanya gore fa a tswa teng botshabelo jwa gagwe e tla nna Rara?! Ke dumela thata gore le fa o ka mo phonya ka letswele o ka seke a ipusolosetse. Jaaka a re tlhalosetsa a re kgolegelo e mo file sebaka sa go itshenka le go itshekatsheka. O dumela gore matlhogoputswa ba opile kgomo lonaka fa ba re mo-goa-dira o a di ikgoela. Mo go ene puo e yabo e na le bokao mme o solofetsa gore morago ga go nna mosima wa phika ka marago, o le kgwile a bo a le thelela.

“Kgolegelo ga se kwa go latlhelwang matlakala teng, ke thulaganyo ya botshelo ka gore re kopana kwa ka mefuta yotlhe, ke rata go go raya ke re a re ithuteng mo diphosong tsa ba bangwe eseng re emela go dira phoso pele,” o tlhalosa jalo ka sefatlhego sa motho a na le boikotlhao, pelo e gamuketse botlhoko fa a gopola molato wa gagwe. O re bolelela gore o batla sebaka sa go ya go bona ba lelwapa la mosetsanyana yo a neng a itseetse dikobo mo go ene go ya go kopa maitshwarelo.

Moya wame o kagisong ke dule pitlaganong ga ke sa tshela pogisegong jaaka pitsa isong…..ke apere lorato ke tshela tshiamong ya Morena Jeso,” o tlhalosa jalo ka pina ya setso e a dumelang gore e nnile gaufi thata le pelo ya gagwe le fa a e rulaganya a santse a le kwa ntlung ya lefifi. Motho o ka ipotsa gore go diragala eng kwa kgolegelong se se fetolang magolegwa ka bontsi.

Mookamedi wa Prisons Fellowship Botswana, Ronald Dintsi, o phophothela maitlamo a ba lephata la dikgolegelo a go sokolola magolegwa. A re lephata la dikgolegelo le na le tsamaiso e e tsepameng ya go inaakanya le batsayakarolo mo mererong ya go sokolola ba dira molato.

Dintsi o tlhalosa gore maiteko a bone a a atlega ntswa go na le dikgwetlho. O kopa makalana a a ikemetseng go thusa puso go tlisa kagiso mo meweng ya batho ba ba utlwisitsweng botlhoko ke botlhoka tsebe le go amogela ba ba ikotlhayang.
Ditiro ene a re kwa kgologelong o ithutile gore motho o tshela ka digakolodi tse pedi, sa mowa o bosula le sa mowa o siameng, mme go tsone ka bobedi o itlhophela gore o batla sefe se tsaya bogogi mo botshelong jwa gago.
Selo se sengwe se a kayang fa e ne ya nna seikokotlelo sa gagwe le gompieno ke go ithuta bogolo jwa Modimo.

“Ke ne ka ba ka itemogela gore kgolegelo ga se ya mabota fela, le batho mo botshelong ba tshela matshelo fela a a thata a go imelwa ke dilo tse ba di itirang,” a tlhalosa.

“Go tsogela mo bojalweng tsatsi le letsatsi gone ka bo gone ke kgolegelo ka gore motho wa teng ga go motlhofo fela gore a tswe mo mokgweng o. Ke rata go rotloetsa makala a puso ya Botswana go nna seopo sengwe go aga setshaba sa Botswana, dikgolegelo di dira ka natla go aga badiramelato mme go ka nna molemo thata fa re ka bona go tsosolosiwa le tsa metshameko ka go lebega re ikaegile thata mo go tsa tiro ya diatla. Re le batho re na le ditalente tse di farologaneng,” a tlhalosa.

Ditiro o tswelela ka gore keletso ya gagwe ke go nna le sebaka sa go tsamaya a gakolola bo setlabosheng mo dikolong a le sekai a ba rerela thero ya gagwe ya gore “a re ithuteng mo diphosong tsa batho ba bangwe eseng go emela go dira phoso”.

Mongwe wa badira molato wa pele, Mothei Sejakgomo, a re mananeo a go sokolola badiramolato a botlhokwa. Sejakgomo le bangwe ka ene ba ba kileng ba ya kgolegelong ba mo mokgatlhong wa Botswana Institute of Rehabilitation and Reintegration of Ex-offenders o o thusang go letlanya badiramolato le batswa-setlhabelo le go ba amogela mo setshabeng gape. Sejakgomo a re dingwe tse magolegwa a pele a kopanang le tsone ke go tlhoka kamogelesego mo setshabeng mo ba felelang ba dira molato gape.

Thuso Khubamang wa lekalana la Scud Missile Promotions a re tshidilo maikutlo mo magolegweng e botlhokwa thata. A re e le mongwe wa ba-na-le-seabe mo tirong e ya go amogelwa sesha badiramelato o bona phenyo mo mosepeleng o. Khubamang o supa fa go na le dikai tse di nametsang gore ba ba kileng ba tshwarwa ba na le seabe se se utlwalang mo setshabeng. A re bangwe ba setse ba filwe dithuso tsa go tsweledisa dithuto tsa bone fa bangwe ba thusiwa ke makalana a tshwana le CEDA go simolola dikgwebo.

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.
