Lebowakgomo

Lebowakgomo was the capital of the former non-independent black state of Lebowa. Lebowakgomo lies southeast of the Limpopo town of Polokwane. The township was established in 1974 for blacks, and was enlarged and developed in the early 1980s. The name is derived from two Sepedi (Northern Sotho) words: "Lebowa" - North + "Kgomo" - Cow.

Lebowakgomo was one of the three townships in the former state, the other two being Mahwelereng and Seshego.

In the early 90's Lebowakgomo had three primary schools (Little Bedfordview, Mogodumo and Ntsiyekgopu), and three High Schools (Lebowakgomo High School , SJ van der Merwe and Mathomomayo High School)

Mahwelereng lies two kilometres from the town of Mokopane.It is surrounded by the semi rural areas of Ga-Madiba,Moshate,Sekgakgapeng and Masethlaneng.
