About Setlutlu
Setlutlu was a consort.
Setlutlu, or Masekeletu, (fl. c. 1836 CE - c. 1855 CE) was the spouse of Sebetwane — a chief of the Kololo people.
Her brother-in-law was King Mbololo.
Biography Setlutlu was not Kololo by birth; she may have been Batlokoa, or Phuthing. She had been captured during war, and Sebetwane, the Kololo ruler, originally awarded Setlutlu to Lechae, one of his young commanders, to serve as his wife. Later, Sebetwane took her for himself, and married her. By this time she was married once again, to a man named Mamire. The town she lived in was simply known by her name. Setlutlu was a grandmother of Princes Litali and Sesane.
