FRANCISTOWN: Justice Zibani Makhwade has ruled in favour of a brother against an alleged daughter of the late Kgolo Selato. Recently, Gaomotho Selato, left the Francistown High Court a victorious man against Gaopalelwe Moaro, whose claim to be the daughter of the deceased could not be verified by the court.

Selato was suing Moaro for the two ranches in the Ngwato Land Board territory, and Kgosi Mokhutshwane Sekgoma was cited as the second respondent.

Delivering judgement, Makhwade said the dispute essentially started in 2014 as an urgent application when the applicant sought an interdict against the respondents from proceeding with the distribution of the estate of the late brother, Kgolo Selato.
