"Many farmers who produced nothing last year will, this year, harvest enough food for their families and for commercial purposes. This happened because we provided them with climate-smart seeds and manure early."

"This will help when we want to empower farmers. We will be able to determine how many people we are supporting and how much food they can produce. It is not right that we do not have data on farmers in the country."

"The event exhibits the nation’s agricultural expertise and dedication to safeguarding food security while also underscoring the obstacles that the industry faces."

"The event benefits as a critical stage for fuelling growth, innovation and diversity in the agricultural sector. By promoting modern farming practices and supporting essential stakeholders, the government aims to upgrade the sector’s efficiency and durability."

"By celebrating the industry’s potential and encouraging stakeholder engagement, the function seeks to enable the way for a flourishing and food-secure future."

"Whenever a new party is formed, the first thing you should do is ask yourselves tough questions, such as the motive behind the move."

"This fair intends to push diverse market systems, in the long run, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient agriculture sector."

"Now the company is demanding M1.6 billion from the government for cutting its contract while it had six more years to go."

"The government’s decision also came after the company fired 300 nurses who had been on strike for more than 40 days."

"G Global was to regulate and collect M-Pesa and Ecocash money given to the public as shares."

"They have entered the courts to demand the money, we will not discuss it more,” Justice Majara said. She said the agreements were not signed following proper procedures."

"If the government loses the cases launched in the courts, Lesotho will lose a lot of money."

"This is the 10th year after the agreement was signed, but this project is still at the planning stage."

"Africa is home to approximately 1.5 billion people, making it the second most populated continent after Asia."

"This youthful population presents immense potential."

"But without proper investment, especially in health, we risk losing that potential to disease, lack of opportunity, and preventable challenges."

"Lesotho, like many African countries, faces serious inequality in healthcare access between urban and rural areas."

"To build resilient health systems, we must act now. We must invest in health infrastructure, digital health systems, and local innovation. This will reduce our reliance on imported medical solutions and ensure that no one is left behind."

"Strong, accessible healthcare systems are not just about saving lives—they’re about enabling productivity, fostering innovation, and securing our shared future."

"We are reminded that the forests of the Amazon and the mountains of Lesotho are part of one system — both vital, both vulnerable, and both deserving of protection. In Sesotho we say: a home is built by many hands. Let us protect our home, our Earth, with courage, fairness, and faith."

"Today, we stand on the brink of a digital transformation that has the potential to elevate our economies and societies. Lesotho’s AI policy not only positions us at the forefront of this revolution but is also aligned with our commitment to the continental strategy."

"Women have proven their resilience, skill, and innovation. What we need now is to ensure that they are not just participants but leaders in the construction industry."

"Take for example, the rise of cyber bullying, which devastates the lives of many young people globally. In this digital age, emotional and psychological harm can be inflicted without ever crossing paths physically."

"l am not giving because I have money but God is using me to help the needy and above all we came together to network and celebrate ahead of Christmas day."

"By extending a helping hand to those in need is a testament Ms. Moorosi fears God and could not stand watching people suffer."

"We need to urgently travel to US to engage with Executives and plead our case."

"My biggest concern was the immediate closure of factories and job loses."

"In September 2024, the RFP made arrangements with Ntaote to supply them with fertilizers and agricultural inputs as part of an effort to assist him in avoiding prosecution. As part of the party’s strategy, Hon. Sello Hakane was appointed to oversee the distribution of these proceeds of crime among his party caucus and other MPs. This was executed, yet the DCEO did nothing about it."

"I have visited local manufacturers who have state-of-the-art machines and resources, producing high-quality bricks that meet international standards. They have the capacity, they have the expertise, and they have the passion to deliver. All they need is a level playing field, and that’s where government support comes in."

"Our local manufacturers, both small and large, have the capacity and resources to produce quality bricks, but hardware stores often overlook them due to lack of government restrictions on importing bricks from South Africa."

"The government has since banned the famo gangs fingered in a spate of crimes that have been rocking the country. But unless the government gets to the bottom of the issue, including unearthing state security agents allegedly supplying these gangs with weapons, nothing much will change."

"The government should establish a commission of inquiry to investigate the killings by famo gangs and involvement of security forces in these gangs. It is no secret that members of the security forces are affiliated to different famo gangs in the country."

"We are going to push for change. It is time for new beginnings. It is time for change; vote wisely for a better future, vote SR. I thank you for remaining faithful to the revolution. That is a sign that you hope for change."

"We are ruled by thieves. This (M6, 16 billion) is a lot of money, almost a third of Lesotho’s budget."

"I remember the day I mediated between Liabiloe (‘Maesaiah) and Mrs Lipolelo Thabane at my home and Liabiloe promised me that they had buried the hatched. Thereafter, Lipolelo was killed but never once did I think Liabiloe could be a suspect. We suspected she was killed by the notorious plot of Team 20."

"We will flex our muscles against Liabiloe until she either commits suicide or flees to exile, but we can attain this through collaboration as Basotho."

"I will fight tooth and nail for this country, Lesotho deserves better, and I will not rest until we achieve a government that puts people first."

"How is it that a country as vast and established as Lesotho has no fire extinguishers readily available on the roads?"

"Basotho need to have a heart, I fail to understand who on earth would take videos of such a traumatic moment and post them for likes and shares. Life has no guarantee, and we must treat each moment and each life with the dignity it deserves."

"We need the police as our strength, as the pillar of national safety, but the government has corrupted this institution. It is being used to intimidate instead of serve."

"Lipholo is no foreigner, he is a citizen of this country and deserves to be treated with dignity. The police could have approached him in a better, more humane manner. Their aggressive tactics were unnecessary and unjustified."

"I believe my prosecution is intended to indemnify RFP MPs. To me, this is a clear case of abuse of power by the DCEO, given their previous statements and positions, which now contradict the charges they are bringing against me. This inconsistency is throwing the administration of the DCEO into chaos."

"As MPs, we often have policy disagreements in Parliament, but I cannot be prosecuted by my own colleagues under the guise of a DCEO investigation to conceal their ulterior motives. This covert and deceptive approach fundamentally conflicts with the principles of constitutionalism. The key question is: why aren’t RFP MPs being prosecuted by the DCEO?” Mr Lekunya argues."

"Given the complexity of these allegations involving RFP MPs, I have become an easy target. The Constitution prohibits discrimination—if I financed Ntaote’s operations and he collaborated with RFP MPs to obstruct his trial, I should not be made a scapegoat for political expediency should their plan fail."

"International Day of Persons with Disability focuses on Breaking down the Barriers to achieve equal access to education,(19 November 2012)"

"As the Minister For Education and Training in Lesotho, I implore parents of children with disability to enroll their children in school. They also have the right to reach their full potential. This is the best possible Christmas present a parent can give."

"As government, we are required to create an environment where children can learn, grow healthy and reach their full potential."
