Gravity Of Schools' Rotten Feed Saga Escalates

The number of destroyed bags of sorghum meal, maize and beans declared unfit for consumption has also risen dramatically from an earlier reported total of 60 bags to about 197 so far destroyed since the beginning of the year. The condemned food supplied to the primary schools that was infested with weevils, mould and worms was to be consumed by pupils at primary schools within the northern city. 

Early last week senior Francistown City Council (FCC) officials led by council clerk, Mompati Seleka also told The Monitor sister publication, Mmegi that they only became aware of the schools feed being in a bad state at the beginning of May.
