SEEKING ANSWERS: Kgatleng landowners
About 100 frustrated Kgatleng landowners on Tuesday delivered a petition on the change of agriculture land use to the office of the president.
On Monday, they reported some employees of the Ministry of Land Management, Water and Sanitation Services, and Kgatleng Landboard to the police for violation of the penal code.
According to Gilbert Sesinyi who spoke on behalf of the petitioners, President Masisi had issued a directive in 2019 to allow Batswana to change the use of their agricultural land into non-agricultural use.
He said last year October the Director of the Department of Town and Country Planning, Eunice Mmono issued an advisory note on suspension of agricultural land use zone guidelines.
