Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Numerous development projects have been earmarked for Molepolole South, area MP Mr Kabo Morwaeng has said.<\/b><\/p>\n

Responding to concerns raised by the residents in Gamodubu and Mmanoko during kgotla meetings on Wednesday, Mr Morwaeng said amongst the projects to be undertaken was construction of the road connecting Gamodubu to the Gaborone\u2013Molepolole road.<\/p>\n

He said the 3-kilometre stretch had been allocated P5.6 million.<\/p>\n

MP Morwaeng, who is also the Minister for State President, said he made a decision to develop roads in his area from the constituency fund.<\/p>\n

Previously, each ward shared the P10 million annual fund resulting with incomplete roads and the minister said it was important to have completed roads rather than having incomplete patches all over the constituency.<\/p>\n

In addition, the pavement connecting Mmanoko to the A12 road would also be extended to the kgotla and the primary school.<\/p>\n

Also in the pipeline is development of the 22-kilometre Molepolole internal roads.<\/p>\n

Mr Morwaeng said the contractors undertaking these projects would be required to employ locals, especially for semi-skilled or unskilled jobs.<\/p>\n

He disclosed that upgrading of the kgotla shelter at the Molepolole main kgotla was complete.<\/p>\n

He said the P600 000 project as well as construction of the P26 million kgotla offices were implemented as a result of his efforts.Mr Morwaeng said the Gamononyane\u2013Molepolole water project was expected to be completed in September.<\/p>\n

He explained that the project schedule was extended as it was affected by high steel prices due to the Ukraine\/Russian conflict.<\/p>\n

He pledged to help develop the local kgotla shelters.<\/p>\n

Some residents complained about the slow allocation of residential plots in their areas, which however was explained to be due to the reluctance of ploughing fields\u2019 owners to cede them to the land board.<\/p>\n

Others decried the high crime rate.<\/p>\n

In Gamodubu, where it was explained that currently there was one police officer after the other was transferred but never replaced, the residents requested more law enforcement officers.<\/p>\n

Mmanoko residents complained that they had to rely on the police in Molepolole, which was far hence it took a long time to get assistance.<\/p>\n

They also talked about unavailability of medications in clinics, which compelled them to travel to Scottish Livingstone Hospital in Molepolole.<\/p>\n

Ms Patience Kago of the District Health Management Team (DHMT) said nurses had stopped dispensing drugs as they said it was not their duty.<\/p>\n

There are 64 health facilities in Kweneng district, while there are only nine pharmacy technicians, hence the challenge.<\/p>\n
