“I am setting the agenda for my community, and I need to engage elderly people and provide them with activities that will keep them interested and engaged.
“Together with the community at large, we will find common ground in our ward to better explore and execute all projects to keep them active and engaged at all times.”
Tlhako hopes the celebration opens doors to bring senior citizens together.
