Lefatshe revolves around the Coligny incident in North West where a youth, Mahlomola Jonas Moseweu was pushed off a moving truck for allegedly stealing sunflowers worth R80.00 from a farm. This story is weaved into the tapestry Marikana tragedy where police opened fire of miners for demanding a "living wage and improved working conditions". 

In this book, Memela revives the culture of politically conscious storytelling that readers can relate to and identify with.
