Description

During the 1960s, Lesotho gained its independence and the Basotho people elected their first Prime Minister.

In Volume II of his memoirs, Spencer 'Ted' Nettelton reflects on the momentous changes he witnessed during nineteen years working as a District Commissioner in the British Colonial service.


In 1966, he organised Lesotho's Independence Celebrations before serving as secretary to the country's first democratically elected Prime Minister, Chief Leabua Jonathan.


In 1967, Ted accompanied Chief Leabua to the US where the prime minister delivered his first address to the United Nations General Assembly. 


In a colourful career that included preliminary investigations into medicine murder and illegal diamond buying, and overseeing a range of effective aid initiatives, Ted made many good friends amongst the Basotho and is proud of the contributions he, and others like him, made to the country.
