Analysts rail against Ipelegeng

Speaking at the 2010/11 national budget analysis by policy makers meeting in Gaborone yesterday, Dr Keitseope Nthomang of the University of Botswana lumped Ipelegeng with the so-called National Constituency League and the special nomination of councillors and Members of Parliament as a burden on the nation that needed to be reviewed.

"A clear and comprehensive job creation strategy needs to be put in place that has clear annual employment targets," Nthomang said. "In our national consultations, we visited poor people and held meetings in places like Francistown, Ghantsi, Maun, Selebi-Phikwe.
