- BY LAME CHABA

Ketshepaon­e Karabo recently published a book titled Waboraro Masenyelet­sa, wh i c h focuses on relationsh­ips, marriage, cheating/infidelity, and the dangers of lovers keeping secrets between themselves. The 38-yearold told Vibe that she was inspired to write the book following her own personal experience­s, after she got married in 2008 and divorced in 2010. “I wanted to share insight on the reality of marriage in our times,” she said. She explained that through the book, she aims to teach and inspire other couples, whether married or not, that love should be shared two people and if a third party is introduced. “Once there is a third person in the picture, things change to the worse, and can lead to endless fights, suicides, divorces or even the use of traditiona­l witchdocto­rs which can also lead to death or hatred,” she said.

The book has 113 chapters in which the first chapter narrates that there was a lady from Molepolole called Sebaga who was in love with a man from Manyana called Kaelo. In the book, Kaelo was renting a house in Kopong but working in Mogoditsha­ne at Security Systems. Kaelo was unfaithful as he also dated a lady from Tutume called Nono and that’s where fights started after the two women met at

Kaelo’s house, Nono injured Kaelo and he ended up losing his good looks all because of his disloyalty.

Karabo said the book is an insightful page turner, and encouraged everyone to buy a copy and learn more.

The book will be officially launched on the 12 December but copies are already on sale.
