Khama admits to delays in compensation

Khama said that while the compensation is also not a match to the damage caused by elephants, he admitted that they have taken too long to compensate the affected parties. 

When responding to a question asked by Member of Parliament for Boteti East Sethomo Lelatisitswe, Khama stated that the extent of damage caused by elephants in the Boteti East villages as reported to the Wildlife Office in Letlhakane ranged from crop raiding, damage to field fences, kraals, water installations such as reservoirs, water pumps, pipes, engines and water tanks.
