CBD Vendors Given Until December

Two weeks ago, the Francistown City Council (FCC) ordered the vendors to vacate the stalls at the end of October. For years, the FCC has been trying to relocate the vendors to no avail. Vendors cited lack of a suitable location as the reason for their reluctance to move.

In the past, the vendors have even refused suggestions that they should move to a place near the Francistown/Ramokgwebana border rank on grounds that the area is crime-infested.
