Mantsopa Local Municipality

Mantsopa Local Municipality This is the OFFICIAL page of Mantsopa Local Municipality. Mantsopa was the sister to King Moshoeshoe. Mantsopa accommodated them in her cave.

She was banished from the Kingdom of King Moshoeshoe when he suspected that her powers were greater than his. When she arrived at Modderpoort there were no houses and she stayed in a cave. She was a great prophetess and everything that she predicted happened. In 1886 a group of men called “The Brotherhood of St Augustine” arrived at Modderpoort on their way to Durban. She later left them in this c

ave and settled at Spitskop Mountain and built a small house for herself. This cave was later known as “Lehaha la Mantsopa”. The missionaries decided to stay and not go to Durban anymore and they turned the cave into a chapel. Mantsopa also had a fountain (this fountain still exists to date) that does not dry up at a mountain called “Verve”. She used the water from the fountain to cure sick people. Mantsopa believed in God but did not know modern religion. She later joined the church and was baptised and given the name Anna. Mantsopa’s grave continues to be visited and offerings are still placed on or near it. The entire area mentioned above was later known as “Lekgalong la Mantsopa” (Mantsopa’s Pass). VISION

The fun-loving MEC Leeto of the Free State Department of Sports, Arts, Culture and Recreation, told the community of Hobhouse that, "the ANC-led government has a good story to tell."

"Ha batla ba ntse ba re hee hee ha ba sebetse, le ba botse h**e na ke eng nthwe?" she pointed at the newly built library in Dipelaneng.

She further urged the community to take care of the library and to stop vandalising government - parents should lead by example, "Diliborari ha di tjheswe ke bana ba banyane empa di tjheswa ke batho ba baholo ba hlotsweng ke bophelo," she said.

"Young people in Hobhouse should be the first to stop those who vandalise property," she tasked young people.

MEC Leeto handed over the library to the community as well, indicating that this is the most resourceful asset that the government has handed over to its people and that this library should be treated as an investment that will be handed over to generations yet come.
