Makgaba endures 44 years of misery

While the country is getting ready to celebrate its 44 years of independence, Makgaba residents in Boteti say that they have no reason to celebrate this independence because for 44 years they has not seen any development in their settlement since they were there.

Makgaba settlement is situated about 20 kilometres from Mokubilo Village. Residents say that they have to go to Mokubilo for services. Makgaba residents say they have been staying in that settlement for as long as they can remember.

The residents complain that though they are more than 500 in population, they are not eligible for government services.
