A newly-built resort in the impoverished village of Madibogo in the North West has come as a breath of fresh air for the locals. They say their area finally has a tourist attraction that will put the small and sleepy village on the map. The establishment has also received a resounding endorsement from patrons, with many saying it's a perfect example of a successful rural development model.
The resort is expected to create jobs and improve the village while also bolstering the local municipality and the province.
SABC News Reporter Sellwane Khakhau and video journalist Jabu Oa Africa visited the resort and compiled this report.
