The Sunday Sun reported that Semenya’s relatives went to visit Raseboya’s family to negotiate lobola. Apparently her family offered to pay R25 000.
In a recent interview, Semenya said Raseboya was her ‘soulmate for life’.
When she was called for comment about lobola, Caster’s phone was answered by Violet, who said: “Caster is still in training and you can leave a message so I can pass it on to her.”
