GCC clerk fumes at KDC for exposing debt

Gaborone City Council (GCC) clerk, Agnes Serage, is annoyed that the Kweneng District Council (KDC) has spilled the beans on a P4 million-plus debt between the two civic authorities.

The irate GCC official refused to answer questions about the debt it owes and chose to attack the KDC for the expose. "Tell KDC to learn to keep things secret. Tell them that they should talk privately about these matters and not to give them to the media. They should learn to talk to me directly," she said before hanging up. The GCC is said to owe KDC over P4 million for using the Gamodubu landfill in Kweneng.

KDC chairman, Motlhophi Leo said early this week, during a council meeting that the GCC has been owing them since 2009. GCC accounts for about 80 percent of the total monthly waste disposal at the landfill.
