Maloba tautona a goroga le ’atla sa gagwe, morwa Khama, kwa phuthegong ya Domi, gatwe batho ba gowa ba re: “Motho! Motho!” Kana ke raya go gowa batho ba goelela ba bangwe ba re: “Motho! Motho!” Ka ipotsa gore a naare ba rotloetsi ba ba Modimo ba; a ba ne ba sa nne khuduthamaga mme ba tswa ka megopolo ya dikgalaletso tse di botoka tsa go boka tautona Mogae le ’atla sa gagwe Ian Khama. A o raya gore batho ba ka goeletsa yo mongwe ba re: “Motho! Motho!” ntswa le bone tota e le batho? Mme kana ke matswakabele a puo le bokao jwa yone ka tota bagalaletsi ba, ba ka go bolelela gore “Motho! Motho!” ke khutshwafatso ya eng, le gore ditso tsa go goeletsa mo, ke eng. Mme nna fa ke ka re ke feta batho jaaka nna ba re “Motho! Motho!” nka nna ka le botsa phokoje ke itlhoma ba mpona sesenyi; fa ke le pelo kgale nka botsa gore: “Betsho lwa re ke rileng fa lo nkgoeletsa lo re: “Motho! Motho!” jaana?” Ga ke tseye gore potso e tautona le monnawe ba ka e botsa ka ke dumela gore ba tlhaloganya gore puo e e raya eng.
O tlaa lemoga fa ke rile seatla sa ga tautona ke Ian Khama. ’Ina la gagwe kana le a ntshita ka re le bantsi re mmitsa maina a a farologanyeng. Bangwe ba re ke Ian Khama, Bangwe ba re Seretse Khama Ian Khama; gotwe Lieutenant-General Seretse Khama Ian Khama, bangwe ba re: Mothusa Tautona Lieutenant-General Seretse Khama Ian Khama. Le le telele go a feta otlhe maina a ke: Kgosi-kgolo ya Bangwato Mothusa Tautona Lieutenant-General Seretse Khama Ian Khama. O nkinele diatla metsing morwa Khama fa ke sa go bitsa sentle, rona baRuele re setse re sitega re sa itse gore re go bitse jang; bangwe bone ba tlhalefile ka ba go bitsa fela ba re: “Motho! Motho!”
Ke itumetse thata fa ke utlwa fa tautona a ne a baya phuthego pele molaetsa ka Setswana. Ke itse fa a ka se se dirise nako tsotlhe, fela jaaka bontsi jwa Batswana bo sa bue Setswana nako tsotlhe, mme re a mo akgola fa a se bua e bile a se bua ka botswerere. E le ruri “metsi ya re go kgoberega morago a itsheke” e bile molaetsa wa gagwe wa gore go busiwe dipelo dilo di boele meriting, re solofela o wetse mo mmung o o bongola e seng mo lokgarapaneng, wa tla wa selwa ke botswere. Re itse fa bangwe ba ne ba rile ba tsieditswe. Bangwe ba re: “Fa ba ne ba sa mo dika o ka bo a fetile ka tse di tsididi.” Le nna nka rialo ka re ke dikilwe, fa ke bona dilo di gotela. Mme re solofela fa Matomokoraga a tlaa ipopa a rarabolole kgang tsa bone.
Mme kana puo fa e gola mo bathong ga ba e lemoge, e bile e kare e ba tsaya ka tshoganyetso. Re tshwanetse ra galaletsa batho ba ba tsileng ka “Bulela ditswe” go bo ba godisitse Setswana. Ga ke akgele sepe ka gore a thulaganyo ya Bulela ditswe e siame kgotsa nnyaa. Se ke se akgelang ke gore diphathi di ntse di tlhalosa meono ya tsone ka mafoko le megopolo ya Sekgoa. Bangwe ba re ba sala megopolo ya Marxism morago; bangwe ba re Socialism le a mangwe mafoko a makima a Sekgoa a nako tse dingwe a re sitang. Ka jalo go tswa ka “Bulela ditswe” ke go tswa ka lefoko la Setswana le le tlhalosang maiteko a thulaganyo nngwe ya lekoko la sepolotiki. Ka jalo fa re kwala dithanodi tsa Setswana re tlaa tshwanelwa ke go tsenya lefoko “Bulela Ditswe” mme re le lemoge jaaka lefoko le le simolotseng go dirisiwa ke MaDomi ka ngwaga wa 2003.
Fa re kwala dithanolo mo dithanoding re tshwanetse ra lemoga fa mafoko “kopano, tsholetsa” a na le bokao kgotsa tiriso e sele go na le jaaka re tlwaetse. Ka jalo re tlaa tshwanelwa ke go tlhalosa dikgoeletso tsa makoko a sepolotiki a a farologaneng jaaka BNF, BDP le a mangwe. Mo go tlhaloseng dikgoeletso tse, ga re a tshwanela go lebala “Motho!” jaaka kgoeletso e e dirisiwang mo boeteleding-pele jwa Madomi ke balatedi.
Re santse re tlhokana le go dira ditlhotlhomiso ka puo ya sepolotiki go tlhaloganya mafoko a a dirisiwang ke mapalamente. Ngwaga o o fetileng maiteko a a ne a dirwa ke Naledi Naomi Kgolo, a fetsa dithuto tsa gagwe tsa Sekgoa kwa Yunibesithing. Mme ka ditlhotlhomiso tsa gagwe di ne di itebagantse le mekwalo ya palamente, gape a ne a kwala pampiri e potlana, o tshephotse fela. Re tshwanetse ra lebelela tiriso ya puo kwa diphuthegong tsa diphathi le ka fa puo e diriswang ka teng mo dikganetsanyong tsa mo mebileng mme ra e tlhaloganya ra bo ra e tlhalosa. Ka go dira jalo re tlaa lemoga fa Setswana se dirisiwa ka mefutafuta. A ga o bone go na le “Motho! Motho!”
