It’s no surprise that Polokwane has evolved from humble beginnings, becoming a city in 1992. In keeping with the spirit of change and reconciliation, city’s name was changed from Pietersburg to Polokwane. This was one of the initiatives lead by national government to rename a number of roads, towns and landmarks as part of SA’s democratic transition.
