Kweneng Land Board chairperson Mr Kgang Kgang, made the warning when addressing a kgotla meeting in Mmopane recently.<\/p>\n

He said illegal land allocation remained rife and perpetrators were from all sectors of society. \u201cInvestigations have revealed that public figures such as dikgosi, politicians and lawyers are involved in illegal land occupation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Kgang said the aftermaths of the offence were devastating and embarrassing and people should wisely follow proper procedure to avoid nasty repercussions such as loss of money and property.<\/p>\n

He said action would be taken against squatters in Mmopane and anyone who purchased illegally acquired plots in the area or anywhere within the land board\u2019s jurisdiction. \u201cThe land board will not hesitate to repossess any plot occupied illegally, regardless of the amount of investment on it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Responding to complaints from residents on the tedious land allocation process, Mr Kgang said they were targeting 10500 plots were due for allocation in Kweneng this financial year.<\/p>\n

That excluded 4500 plots left over from last year\u2019s allocation owing to tender survey disputes.<\/p>\n

He said 1610 plots would be allocated in Mmopane. \u201cThe layout is on its final stages as we speak,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
