South Wins Against North At The 2016 Son Of Soil Choir Competition

The 12th edition of the annual cultural festival, Son of the Soil (SOTS) was held on January 30 at the Serokolwane Lawns. The event which stretched from the 22nd to the 31st was held under the theme ‘Kwa Re Go Yang-Ke Motswana’. The main event on January 30 was fun filled with traditional games, songs and dance.

The Dikhwaere Competition feature is the most popular segment of the Festival where the people from South of Dibete group together and battle against the group from the North. The North Choir once again lost to the South Choir in a result that is usually marred with controversy and favouritism complaints from the losing Choir. South Choir has consecutively won the contest for the past five years.

Like the first president of Botswana, Sir Seretse Khama once said, A nation without culture is a lost nation. Big up to the organizers.
