PETER MOKABA TRIBUTE 2014
Polokwane plays home to the 1st Annual
Peter Mokaba Tribute 2014 and we invite all fellow South Africans, Comrades and
Friends alike to celebrate with us. The tribute concert will mark the 12th year
anniversary and commemoration on the life and times of Peter Mokaba ‘LION OF THE NORTH’; it will focus on paying
tribute to what most people describe as a leader who is “gone too soon”, a former
ANC Youth League firebrand leader who has been hailed by President Jacob Zuma
as a hero and disciplined leader.
