Apparently from a variant form of Xhosa abakwetha, showing a different plural class prefix.

noun amakweta · amakwetha

South Africa An abakwetha. I remembered the ligh fear with which, in my youth, we'd used to watch the groups of wandering amakweta on the farm, covered in white clay from head to foot and without a shred of clothing, except for a loincloth or a small penis sheath.
