FRANCISTOWN: Francistown deputy mayor Gaethuse Ramolotsana has urged Batswana to nurture the culture of helping people in need.

Speaking recently at the official launch of Gerald Estates All Stars Football Club and handing over of a house to Lebogang Zebra that was constructed after being gutted by fire in December last year, Ramolotsana said: “I encourage Batswana to keep the spirit of helping others during difficult times. It is good that the youth have also embraced the Setswana culture of helping those in need. Even the Holy Bible says that ‘blessed is the hand that giveth because it will receive abundantly.’ I encourage the brainchild behind this useful project Thabo Nyambe to continue with these good deeds.”

Ramolotsana also heaped plaudits on former president Ian Khama, who was the guest speaker at the event, for having kept his promise of always helping the underprivileged during and post presidency.
