to Hellenize the area. A memorial was built to commemorate Greek soldiers fallen during the Greco-Italian War. Disagreements between some villagers and representatives of the Omonia organisation rose because of allegations that the construction personnel violated the village cemetery while building the memorial. This led to a one-year long imprisonment sentence for Omonia's leader in Korça, Naum Disho, however his sentence was removed by the Korçe's Court of Appeal. Today, the majority of the villagers identify as Aromanians and many have received Greek citizenship from the Greek government, together with pensions for elderly people. The village is also referred as one of the Aromanian villages in Albania. Top-Channel television visited the area and interviewed many people from the area including neighboring villages, and published the findings in the documentary "Searching the Vlachs" (). The Albanian school, first opened in 1916 with 36 pupils, is suffering because the number of pupils registered each year is decreasing. During the late 2000s linguists Klaus Steinke and Xhelal Ylli carried out fieldwork, seeking to corroborate information about villages cited in past literature as being Slavic-speaking. Boboshticë was noted as having a population of Aromanians with only a few remnants left of its former Slavic-speaking population. During the early 1960s Aromanians settled in Boboshticë, which resulted in an ethnic and linguistic change of demographics of the population in the village. In the 2010s, only one elderly women remains in Boboshticë who is a speaker of the village's local Macedonian dialect called Kajnas (of us). Religious monuments The village is home to the Church of Saint Demetrius and of Saint John the Forerunner. Both churches have been declared Cultural Monuments of Albania. Until the 1960s two Orthodox monasteries were active next to Boboshticë; the Monastery of Saint Nicholas (Alb: Shën Kollit) on the east, and Monastery of the Dormition of the Theotokos (Alb: Shën Mërisë) on the south. The monasteries had dedicated guest rooms for hosting pilgrims from other areas of the Balkans during religious feasts and events. The St. Mary monastery had a Prilepska room for guest coming from Prilep area (Alb:Përlep), and an Ohridska for guests coming from Ohrid area (Alb: Ohri). Saint Nicholas was a stauropegic monastery, it was destroyed during the atheistic policies by the authorities of the Peoples Republic of Albania, but now has been restored.
