‘Skopo’ sellers an inspiratio­n

Makola’s game improving

Mabeskraal deserves a salute

In the year of OR Tambo, I am left perplexed as no one has bothered to mention Mabeskraal. You can’t talk about OR and omit the North West village. Tambo was Batlhako Ba Matutu’s lawyer. Mabeskraal was a gateway to Botswana for many South African political activists . Frank Chikane took refuge at Moruti Mhlongo’s house. Chief Rakoko Mabe was banished from the village because he was fighting the apartheid government. – Shaluza Tselanngwe, Mabeskraal
