Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP), Emma Peloetletse, has distanced herself from controversy surrounding a multimillion project for the construction of 28 police stations across the country. This comes after her husband, Joseph Peloetletse, was named one of the potential beneficiaries from this lucrative deal, a decision which was done by way of selective tendering.
Rocked by reports that he is using his wife’s influence to get a lucrative tender for the construction of 28 police stations across Botswana, Joseph Peloetletse, the husband of Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP), Emma Peloetletse, says he is going to continue tendering for government projects despite corruption allegations.
As the mega projects tender war between Batswana owned consortia and foreign multinationals heats up, the former has revealed that they are fed up and willing to take risks to level the playing field.
