Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Tonota Council Chairperson, Mr Baemedi Medupi has decried the increasing number of fatal road accidents along the A1 highway, which passes through Tonota.<\/b><\/p>\n

Speaking at the first chairperson\u2019s ball in Tonota on December 28, Mr Medupi said the road accidents continued to claim many productive lives due to amongst other causes, reckless driving.<\/p>\n

The other challenge, he said was the noise in drinking outlets and uncontrolled littering.<\/p>\n

The chairperson also appealed to Batswana in general to register for the upcoming general election in large numbers.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Councillor Medupi said the district was proud of Miss RADP 2023, Gorata Sego of Mabesekwa who scoped position one in the pageant.<\/p>\n

He explained that this was testament that the district had the potential to produce national and international queens.<\/p>\n

He said the first ball was a resounding success, and demonstration of hard work and dedication of the district officials, adding that the district was already looking forward to next year’s ball.<\/p>\n

“The chairperson’s ball is not only a celebration of the end of the year, but also a milestone in the history of Tonota District Council,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Medupi said the council’s upgrade to a fully-fledged council was cause for celebration, and the launch of the new logo symbolised a new beginning.<\/p>\n
