Lady Frere (officially Cacadu) is a small town in Chris Hani District Municipality in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. The town was renamed to Cacadu in 2017 after changes to the country's colonial names.[2] Cacadu, meaning "bulrush water", is the Xhosa name for the White Kei River, which rises in the district.
