Alleged land grabbers to account for plots

The Board has always indicated that it wants to bring perpetrators of the controversial Compensation-In-Kind Policy to account by questioning people who were allegedly abusing the model.

In 2019, the Mogoditshane Sub Land Board announced that when one surrenders a ploughing field, he or she would get six residential plots as compensation. This was coined into a policy called Compensation-In-Kind. While residents ululated at the development, a trend of land grabbing emerged within the system and the policy was suspended and proclaimed as illegal by the Kweneng Land board. The policy provided a loophole for some corrupt Land Board officers to acquire fields through dubious means to get compensation in kind.
