He raised his concerns during a  ceremony to hand over Information Technology (IT) equipment   given to them by the Botswana Tourism Board (BTO).

During his acceptance remarks, Garebolelwe said that the CT5 concession area   has over a decade   remained undeveloped.  He said, in fact, it was ever since the Ministry of Environment, Natural Resources Conservation and Tourism issued it. Gaorebolelwe said that to make matters worse they do not have a signed lease in their possession, which means that the concession area could be transferred to another owner without their knowledge. He said that they realised just a few years ago that both the NCT and BTO did not sign the lease.
