Kgosi Gasebalwe's promotion means that the dikgosi from the three villages, who until now have been reporting to Palapye, will start reporting to Pilikwe which will in turn report to Serowe directly. Until now, Pilikwe, whose kgosi was at the same level with that of Radisele, reported to Ramokgonami.

- Sekoti is unwell. Yesterday a guide from Desert & Delta Safaris' Savute Safari Lodge, Isaac Mpuchane, spotted him with three females from the Marsh Pride gingerly walking near Leopard Rock. His front left leg is swollen and has difficulty in walking. It is unclear what got him injured. But despite the injuries, Sekoti was trying to mess up with Sekekama's females. No one dares play with Sekekama's females and Sekoti is in a weak position to even afford to annoy his savage dad. He is vulnerable and the presence of his father's females poses a great danger to his life. The females know that if Sekekama and Uncle Torn Nose could arrive here, Sekoti might not make it out alive. That's why they quickly dashed out and left Sekoti alone before attracting grave danger to him. But danger could be coming from the north as footprints of the Northern Pride, including males, were spotted heading towards Sekoti's direction.
