This statement serves to confirm that the North West Office of the Premier together with the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs have filed and served the notice of intention to rescind the court order which declared Mr. Kgalalelo Cawe as senior traditional leader of the Barolong boo-Ratlou boo-Mokalaka and their recognition as an independent traditional community.
The order was handed down on 11 August 2022. The rescission application effectively suspends the above judgement until the North West High Court determines otherwise. Furthermore, the suspension renders anything or act done or performed in terms of the aforementioned order unlawful.
Premier Kaobitsa Bushy Maape has undertaken to cooperate with all stakeholders to find a lasting solution to the above matter. This emanates from the meeting that Premier Maape held with Kgosi Thato Kegakilwe Letlhogile and his delegation which included Baga Maiketso and Baga Letlhogile Royal Councils.
