Minister warns Basotho Christmas travellers
MASERU-YOU can come back home for the holidays but be careful that you might have trouble leaving.
That is Home Affairs Minister Motlalentoa Letsosa’s warning to Basotho planning to come home from South Africa for the holidays.
Letsosa told a press conference yesterday that Lesotho is still negotiating with South Africa to relax its border restrictions for Basotho.
“We are currently trying to persuade South Africa to ease their conditions so that our people will not encounter problems when they go back to work,” Letsosa said.
“It will be easy to cross to the Lesotho side but it will not be easy to cross back to South Africa.”
