Lentsweletau is a village in Kweneng District of Botswana. It is located 60 km north of Gaborone. The population was 4,025 in 2001 census.[1] A large precentage of the population is from the Bakwena tribe, and its capital is called Molepolole, also in the Kweneng District.
Lentsweletau was put on the map in the 70s by a very popular musician named Cobra Kenalemang, who inspired another Lentsweletauan, Kotaeshwele, who came to picture with his hit "Kotaeshwele o dira mathaithai" in the mid 80s. It is up again with the popular Toyota Desert Race as a stopover for vehicles filling up petrol and anyone wanting to spend a night in the area and having fun.
