 South Africa - Sotho
The Northern Sotho homeland of Lebowa was declared a "self-governing" (not independent) territory in 1972, with a population of almost 2 million.
Lebowa's chief minister, Cedric Phatudi, struggled to maintain control over the increasingly disgruntled homeland population during the early 1980s; his death in 1985 opened new factional splits and occasioned calls for a new homeland government.
Homeland politics were complicated by the demands of several ethnic minorities within Lebowa to have their land transferred to the jurisdiction of another homeland.

The reason for this was probably that the researcher was seen to have the potential to influence the police force itself and thus provide the opportunity (all too seldom experienced within police organisations) to express their own opinion on important matters.
The privileges of seconded officers in Lebowa include cars, (which even sergeants from the SAP are entitled to) despite the fact that many commissioned officers in the Lebowa police are not allocated vehicles.
In Lebowa the practise of using police to protect Chiefs or headmen (and their associated municipal offices) has lead to a similar process whereby chiefs are able to get regular policemen to harass their political opponents.

 The Msiza and Bophuthatswana   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Much of it lay in the fact that both Bophuthatswana and Lebowa were refusing to implement separate education for their Ndebele citizens, to recognise siNdebele language, and to issue business permits, ID papers, passports, pension benefits and government jobs to Ndebele citizens who refused to forego their Ndebele identity and adopt Bophuthatswana or Lebowa citizenship.
Lebowa, he argued, had been established for the baPedi, and already the Northern Ndebele had been made to feel excluded.
Although Lebowa shared in the same broad ideals of ethnic separation as the Tswana state, Phatudi was much more tactful in his dealings with Ndebele groups within his jurisdiction and, for a time, many Ndebele saw secession from Bophuthatswana and a union with Lebowa as a solution to their political aspirations.

In case of Lebowa Mineral Trust Beneficiaries Forum vs. President of South Africa, the ruling by Judge J Daniels was based on the fact that mineral rights were not protected by section 25 of the Constitution.
The UDM's information is that the Lebowa Mineral Trust Beneficiaries Forum still contend strongly that section 25(4) of the Constitution does not restrict the concept of property to land only, but that whatever the wide scope of the constitutional meaning of property may be, it would include the real rights in respect of land.
It is for this reason that the Lebowa Mineral Trust Beneficiaries Forum is preparing to test the constitutionality of the Abolition of the Lebowa Mineral Trust Act in the Constitutional Court.
