This book chronicles, through desktop and interview research
methodology, the experiences of the Mabula area community in the
full spectrum of the dispossession of their land by Whites during
the erstwhile apartheid government era in the 1960s, and subsequent
successful reclaim under the post-1994 democratic government.
Situated within the Waterberg District in the Limpopo Province
(then Transvaal), the Mabula community was uprooted from the farms
Cyferfontein 434 KR, Droogersloot 476 KR, Olievenfontein 475 KR and
Rietspruit 527 KQ, in the Bela-Bela area, and dumped on barren
areas in the Moretele district in the former Bophutatswana
Homeland. Meanwhile, the land they left behind was turned into
agricultural haven for White farmers and the well known
money-spinning wild life tourism destinations, such as Bonwa Phala
and Mabalingwe Game Parks. On 28 April 1998, the late Mr.
Matsaremane Andries Mabuela officially lodged a land claim on these
farms with The Commission of Restitution of Land Rights. After Mr.
Mabuela’s death, the process was carried forward through the
formation of the Bela-Bela Community Property Association (BBCPA),
led by Mr. Lefa Barrington Mabuela, his son, as chairperson. The
most remarkable aspect of the BBCPA’s struggle for the retention of
their land was the rational and reconciliatory manner in which it
was conducted; such that it could serve as a beacon or model for
other successful land claims.
