Lesotho's independence[edit]

There is no description of the political process or instruments that led to Basutoland's independence and consequent transformation into Lesotho. The citation used for the claim on the Independence_(1966–) subheading is a book on urban developments that simply asserts the independence, and gives no clarification on how it occured. Understandable given that it's a book on urban developments, but then why is it the source used for this fact? Moxanity (talk) 09:14, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
