Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Residents of Mosu have been informed that there are plans to include Mosu-Mmatshumo road project in the National Development Plan 12.<\/b><\/p>\n

Member of Parliament for Boteti East, Mr Sethomo Lelatisitswe told a kgotla meeting in Mosu recently that before being included in the NDP 12, the road had to be assessed and design works be completed.<\/p>\n

Mr Lelatisitswe, who is also the Assistant Minister of Health highlighted that the minister responsible had already toured the road recently to appreciate its state.<\/p>\n

For now, he said the gravel road would continue to be graded regularly.<\/p>\n

Residents complained that Mosu-Mmatshumo road had not been graded for a long time now, while its bad state kept worsening.<\/p>\n

This, they said made travelling between Mosu and Mmatshumo a nightmare, particularly ambulances carrying sick people and expectant mothers.<\/p>\n

With the rainy season approaching, residents appealed to the Department of Roads to urgently grade the road.<\/p>\n

In response, an official from roads department, Ms Shila Phalalo said they were challenged with resources since there was only one machine used to grade roads in the vast Boteti District.<\/p>\n

Currently, she said the machine was based in Boteti West and would be in Boteti East in November.<\/p>\n

On other issues, farmers decried unavailability of ear tags for their livestock.<\/p>\n

One residents, Ms Dineo Ramogala said for a long time now, she had been frequenting the Letlhakane veterinary services office to no avail.<\/p>\n

She therefore appealed to the office to promptly address the issue, adding that stock theft was rampant in Boteti, hence the need for ear tags.<\/p>\n

In response, the scientific officer in the Department of Veterinary Services, Ms Ontsheketse Bonno said unavailability of ear tags or the delay of their provision was caused by the fact that they were manufactured abroad.<\/p>\n

Another issue raised in the kgotla meeting was that of delayed land allocation in Mosu.<\/p>\n

Residents complained that it had been a long time now since the land board allocated both residential plots and ploughing fields in Mosu.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a Village Development Committee (VDC) report indicated that Mosu Primary School was challenged with shortage of classrooms for reception classes.<\/p>\n

The VDC chairperson, Ms Botsalo Njang said the school was in short of toilets as there were only six pit latrines used by 594 pupils.<\/p>\n
