So we want to curb such,\u201d Ms Mokgethi said.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the roadshow would be extended to all parts of the country, particularly border villages where there were migration issues that needed to be cleared out.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, permanent secretary in the Ministry of Labour and Home Affairs, Mr Jimmy Opelo cautioned the public on fraudsters who approached ex-miners who worked in South Africa and claimed to assist them with compensation from government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSouth Africa has done a research and found out that some injuries and diseases that ex-miners have may have been caused by the mining industry and they arranged for compensation. Botswana also has ex-miners that worked in South Africa and currently the ministry is in talks to get compensation for those from South Africa,\u201d Mr Opelo said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the ministry had not appointed people anywhere in the country to help the ex-miners to be compensated except the ministry office in Gaborone.<\/p>\n<p>On other issues, public relations officer in the Ministry of Lands and Water Affairs, Mr Kaboyamodimo Mokoti advised the public to register their plots, including those with certificates following an update to the secure land title.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new certificate does not only give land use rights, but also gives owners chance to develop their land and increase their wealth as it provides access to financial assistance just like freehold land,\u201d Mr Mokoti explained.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the secure land title certificate was mandatory and therefore urged Batswana to register for it while it was still issued free of charge.<b> <\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/botswana\">Botswana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
