Apart from the cute rhyme there are a number of traits that are common to the Archbishop emeritus and the small southern Africa Kingdom.
Contained in the fortress of the Drakensberg and Maluti mountains Lesotho lies 1000m above sea level - close to God.
Like Desmond Tutu, the Basotho people under their founder, King Moshoeshoe, fought hard for independence and self-governance. And, after conquering his foes, King Moshoeshoe remained generous and gracious in his exalted position.
