Reka O Win’e launches in style

- Goitsemodi­mo Kaelo Staff Writer

Marothodi Bar in Broadhurst was a haven for fun and entertainm­ent on Saturday as local brewer Kgalagadi Breweries Limited (KBL) kick-started its “Reka O Win’e” activation.

The activation, which was graced by the brewer’s newly appointed managing director, Carlos Bernitt is part of KBL’s move geared towards rewarding loyal guzzlers.

The competitio­n will see participan­ts compete to win a share of weekly grocery or electricit­y vouchers as well as enter into the main grand draw to win a VW Polo Vivo Trendlines.

While the place is normally chilled, there was vibrancy all around as local entertaine­r cum MC Theo Botshelo Bome, popularly known as Hey Nyeenaah, sparked it to life.

The event started on a rather dull manner for a promotion of a kind on a sunny Saturday. But as always, things changed in an instant when the pint-sized hype man took on the microphone. It appeared to be exactly what the doctor had prescribed as he became a hit with the crowd. The show immediatel­y kicked on and came to life.

Hey Nyeenaah’s fun games, which were interactiv­e, kept the place abuzz as people strived to take part in the games and win some goodies.

While he will engage people by asking questions about the competitio­n, he introduced competitio­ns such as dancing and rope skipping or koi in vernacular, which is a common traditiona­l game in Botswana among children.

The fun competitio­ns involved both men and women, but koi appeared the most popular as the crowd gathered to watch participan­ts ‘do their thing’.

On the decks, Aobakwe Emmanuael Mooki otherwise known as DJ Bunny kept the crowd entertaine­d throughout. He literally played for the crowd as he did not stick to just a certain type of music as DJs would normally do during their sets at certain events. He really showed his versatilit­y and experience of playing at bars.

During the activation, Bernitt said the activation is part of their plan to award their customers with the biggest promotion.

To join the competitio­n, customers can buy any two of the participat­ing brands; that is St Louis Lager 750ml and 500ml, Carling Black Label 750ml, Redds Vodka Lemon 660ml, Castle Lite 660ml and fill in the form.
