'Glad Tidings' for the Central District

With 172 councillors packed for up to three weeks at a time in chambers designed for a considerably smaller number in Serowe, it is a wonder they have not suffocated for lack of oxygen.

 
It is also a wonder that they do somehow fit in the smothering confines and proceed to make an attempt to contribute to the development of their respective wards, at times even tabling the occasional motion.
In a country where the mercury can breach the 40-degree mark, and where the sun scorches the earth for much of the year, any achievement by these councillors is a marvel.
