During the last AGM held in April at the Oasis Motel, BSA affiliates passed a motion of no confidence on the executive committee, but the motion did not see the light of the day.  The issue of non-compliance was used as a weapon against the mover of the motion, Laztborn Segaise.  According to information, the BSA executive committee established that Segaise’s club, Eagles, did not have a bank account and therefore was not compliant with the Registrar of Societies (ROS).

“The issue was to use the BSA constitution to expel Segaise’s club as it was not compliant with ROS hence its expulsion from BSA would be easy and the motion would die a natural death. The issue then failed because about 60% of BSA clubs were not ready to meet the set deadline (for compliance), hence the death of the motion on a technicality,” a club official said.
