Parliament has adjourned the adoption of the report of the Committee on Statutory Bodies and State Enterprises following the examination of books of accounts for Botswana Tourism Organisation (BTO).

This comes after the Minister of Environment, Natural Resources, Conservation and Tourism Tshekedi Khama questioned the credibility of the report before Parliament Wednesday. He explained that the conclusions of the report seemed to be a little bit wicked in a particular way. He stated that he was concerned about the mixed message he got from the committee’s chairperson, MP Samson Moyo Guma, who told him that the Cabinet would have forgotten about that report as time goes.

“My biggest problem is the mixed messages from the chairperson who isn’t here today. You see, a year ago when this started, the chair said to me, I quote, ‘they would have forgotten about this report. Let time go’. We are taking the guidance of the chair of this committee. He then came to me and said to me, ‘you have got other officials working against you’, and mentioned a few of them who I don’t need to mention at this stage. In any case, the year went by we were called again and we are repeating the same questions,” he said.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
