BFTU loses with costs

In a matter that was seemingly overtaken by time since Gabobake is no longer at the helm of the federation, BFTU had wanted the CoA to clarify some of the decisions that affected its constitution when Gabobake was reinstated by the High Court.

However, the CoA took a swipe at the federation for lack of understanding of its own constitution. The legal tussle between the two parties emanated from Gabobake’s removal as BFTU president early last year after the federation received his recall letter from its affiliate the Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) as the latter's factional wars spilled over to the federation.
