FRANCISTOWN: Organisers of the Tlatsa Ghetto, the cleaners and the company that provided security at the festival are involved in a bitter payment disagreement.

The festival, which turned out to be a big flop was held at the Francistown Sports Complex parking lot last month. The organisers claim that they have paid while the cleaners and security officers maintain that they are still owed. In fact officials from Demand Security have hinted that they have approached the courts in order to secure payment for the services they rendered at the show.

A crew of five was engaged to undertake cleaning duties at the festival. Neo Heins led the cleaners of ages ranging between 37 and 57 years. Heins said they were initially promised P2,000 (to share amongst each other) but they only received P1000 through e-wallet and they are now demanding the outstanding balance. She said their contact person from the organising crew, Massie Hule promised to pay off the rest of the amount before end of September but did not keep the promise.
