Lebollo la basadi also known as female ini … Lebollo la basadi also known as female initiation among the Basotho is a rite of passage ritual which marks the transition of girls into womanhood. This activity is still practiced in the Free State, Mpumalanga, Eastern Cape and KwaZulu Natal provinces of South Africa. In Sesotho, lebollo means initiation. The Basotho rite of passage ritual, unlike other practices in Africa, does not involve procedures which remove parts of the female genital organ. However, the inner folds of the labia are enlarged & elongated by stretching for a more pleasurable sexual experience. In areas where initiation is still valued, uninitiated girls are ridiculed by society. South African children are compelled by its constitution to attend school. It is for this reason that the initiation schools for girls were made open twice a year, in June and December, so that those who are able to attend in June may do so and for the many who cannot due to school or other reasons may attend in December helping to keep the culture alive.ecember helping to keep the culture alive.
