Miss Tourism 2013 contestants have not received their prizes as promised, which were due in October. Speaking to Showbiz yesterday, 19-year-old Katlego Gaotsenelelwe who was crowned queen at the August 30th pageant said that she and her princesses are still yet to receive their rewards.

Gaotsenelelwe won herself a cash prize worth P5,000, a clothing voucher for a whole year, a weekend trip to the Okavango Delta and a tour to one of the participating countries of her choice.

“I signed a contract specifying that my prizes will be handed to me on October 19, but I have not gotten them.  The organisers keep giving me excuses that do not make sense,” she said.

Burglaries, car break-ins, and attacks on unsuspecting pedestrians seem to be on the rise!That is not all, as scammers continue to take money from pensioners as well as other Batswana who may fall prey to their unscrupulous tactics....
