one part...
"One elderly woman, who was born into the Bafokeng but married into the Mogale in the 1960s, shrugged her shoulders when asked if the deal was a good one. “Now if you go back to the Bafokeng, even the areas that were very poor, it is so nice,” she said. “They have schools, roads, everything.
