When addressing the crowd Mopeli said the following, “We are here today bringing toys that will be used by the children. We as the royal household saw it fit to do so on behalf of Kgosatsana Manapo foundation because this hospital is named after her. I can see that the sponsors have contributed this lot but it can never be enough so I believe that we can do more.
By having these toys, the children here can be able to play and become better and cheer up quickly when they are fighting to get well. I commend the staff for doing a great job and hope that you continue in patience and love because we do see your efforts.”
