The Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC) has dissolved the Botswana Motor Sport (BMS) committee after investigations showed irregularities in the running of the association, revealed a source who spoke to Mmegi Sport on condition of anonymity.

The association held an overdue Annual General Meeting (AGM) last Saturday after failing to do so in the last two years. In September, an interim committee was set up to investigate the previous committee and to draft a new constitution. It was also decided that the affairs of the association will be handled by the BNSC until a resolution is taken.

“The Sports Commission has dissolved the committee. They took a decision that there will also not be an interim committee to avoid conflicts hence the Sports Commission will run the BMS activities. The decision was taken on the basis that some irregularities were unearthed during investigations. The draft of the new constitution has also been halted. As you are aware, BMS has been using the FIM (Federal International of Motorsport) guidelines. We do not have rules and regulations of our own,” a source close to the proceedings said.
