This has to be the best channel for black people in S.A it shows that nothing is impossible success is not only meant for certain people.. I'm impressed

Thank you so much. Nothing is impossible if we can allow ourselves to learn from each other and work together. 🙏🏾❤️

Aaah that is so humbling thank you. True, we have to abide by certain type of law. Look at the results. Very beautiful indeed. 🙏🏾❤️

Lovely village and glad you touched on cleanliness. Plenty of people need to take a cue from this community and lose that absurd mentality of littering because they think the municipality is going to clean up after them. Even pigs take more pride in themselves.

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

True that. I have noticed that other villages are not taking care of the environment around them. We have to really keep our villages clean. Thank you for watching. 🙏🏾❤️

[@manqobamdau-nkumane9626]

Greetings Sis'Velile. Your channel has been so insightful and I'm sure I speak for many when I say it has inspired us to go back to our home villages and build there. That being said, there is always room for improvement. I suggest in future that you interview people from the villages that you are visiting so that they can give context of their villages, how development came about and if the leadership of the village has any plans for development. I think this will add more value and further give us a people from various villages how we can go about developing our villages. Local economic development (especially rural development) is the next big thing and as such it will be nice if you dig deeper into the history and future of the villages you are visiting so that we can also impart the knowledge you are giving us through this channel. Stay blessed.

[@mphomoloi8049]

Thanks ausi for showing us our village and some of the houses have swimming pools.

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

Please do. What I know in most municipalities there is tribal authority office where chiefs gather for meetings and issues like these are discussed with local government. Really it depends on the work our tribal authority out in pushing for roads in out villages. Thank you for watching. 🙏🏾❤️

[@_Luminary101_]

Leadership in Waterberg district priorities their own goals over the goals of the communities…

[@valenciam125]

Government has neglected us in Limpopo. We produce most minerals. And we have a dam. And yet other provinces are ahead in development. Everything in Limpopo is purely hard work from Individuals

[@ntabyM]

They don't settle for handouts from municipality nor government. They have their own IEB school Lebone, houses for their mine employees (Estate setup) Waterkloof hill and a new school to run 2022. Unlike other tribes, they own their mines RBplat so financially they are sorted.

beautiful and organize, some times watching some village in south Africa, you end up asking yourself" what is the difference between rural and urban area ?" , I use to ask myself this question in some township in south Africa but it seem the question is moving to rural areas very fast...

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

Most of our rural areas are sitting on tribal land which is governed by tribal authority (chiefs and kings). They are developing now and look this good but still our land is controlled and governed by customary law. We answer to our chiefs not to the government on many issues. That’s why villagers don’t wait for government to progress. We save money and do wonders. 🙏🏾❤️

[@simphiwetshabalala1898]

Is it possible for a person who grew up in the townships or cities to get a land to build in the rural areas, or you must be someone who grew up or have a family there?

[@mubveleli7204]

You can get it.....it might not be as easy as somebody who grew up around that area

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

I always say if you are a South African and you grew up in the township because your parents migrated to the city for work, there is a great chance that you have ancestral lineage to a village in the rural areas. While that said, also as a South African you can get land in a rural village you choose to live. All you need to do is to find contacts of the chief in that village and go and state your interest in joining the community. Tribal land is not for sale to South Africans but you do pay an amount to the chief and also offer something like food to the villagers in your community in a ceremony when they welcome you. Go for it and start your research no. All the best. 🙏🏾❤️
