Information uncovered by a Mmegi newscrew on site indicates that CEDA auctioned the lodge, which was developed with the agency’s funds, in August. The Kumakwane landmark was bought by one Lorraine Ferguson for over P3 million, but the new owner had never been granted access to her new asset due to a dispute with the old owner.
