Tseba Ka Morero – Episode 9 – Sekant’si Pekile
At the heart of the Lesotho Highlands Water Project lies one of Lesotho’s most valuable natural resources — our rangelands. These landscapes sustain livelihoods, support agriculture, and breathe life into the economy of the Mountain Kingdom.
As we celebrate 40 years of the LHWP, we sit down with Mr. Sekant’se Pekile, the Polihali Operations Rangelands Officer, to unpack the important work being done to protect and rehabilitate the environment in Mokhotlong and surrounding areas.
In this episode, he shares insights on the LHDA’s environmental protection initiatives and the urgent need to preserve rangelands in areas facing serious challenges of low soil cover and soil erosion. Without proper protection, these lands remain vulnerable to degradation that threatens both livelihoods and the environment.
The LHDA has already rehabilitated areas including Mot’seremeli, Thaba-Phat’soa, Likhameng, Libibing, Makhomalong, and many others — restoring hope for communities and future generations.
Join the conversation and be part of the movement to protect our environment for the benefit of our farmers, communities, and the nation at large.
