It is not only women who can lead the Balobedu nation, men can also ascend to the throne.
Balobedu regent Mpapatla Bakhoma Modjadji explained why the royal council chose Prince Lekukela Modjadji to succeed his late mother, Queen Makobo Modjadji VI. 
Prince Lekukela will be inaugurated next year.
"Our throne is not attached to any gender," says the regent of the Balobedu tribe in Limpopo Mpapatla Bakhoma Modjadji.
He was giving a media briefing hosted by the Modjadji Royal Council on Monday following the surprise announcement last week that Lekukela Modjadji would officially take over the throne in the rainmaking kingdom, instead of his sister Masalanabo.
