ABOUT
LIMPOPO &
GA-MALEKANA
Limpopo is the northernmost province of South Africa. It is named after the
Limpopo River, which forms the province’s western and northern borders. The
name “Limpopo” has its etymological origin in the Northern Sotho language
word diphororo tša meetse, meaning “strong gushing waterfalls”. The capital is
Polokwane, formerly called Pietersburg. Ga-Malekana is situated in the Sekhukhune
District Municipality in the Limpopo province, adjacent to the R555 - the main
