Councillors vow to incite residents to break law

SELEBI-PHIKWE: Some councillors at the Selebi Phikwe Town Council (SPTC) have said that they will encourage residents to contravene the law which bans grilling food in open spaces.

At a recent special full council meeting, the councillors wondered why the law is only perculiar to the town's businesses.The meeting came about after the said councillors wrote a letter to the mayor and council management expressing concern over media reports that the town clerk, Mompati Seleka, was allegedly against the motion. The civic leaders called for Seleka to be sacked saying they have no confidence in him.

The opposition chief whip, councillor Molefhe Molatlhegi told the house they were shocked to hear the town clerk on public radio saying that the motion would not be implemented. "We believe that we do not have a town clerk.Only the minister has the right to change our resolutions not the town clerk. We have lost hope in him," he said.
