Infamous Sebina sex scandal resurfaces

In 2016, the nation, especially members of the opposition, erupted in anger over an allegation that then councillor of Sebina ward in the Tonota North constituency (now Shashe West), Kemmonye Amon, had impregnated a secondary school girl.

The incident arose from a purported Facebook conversation between the then Assistant Minister of Education and Skills Development (now the Minister of Basic Education), Fedelis Molao and Amon. In the ensuing scandal, police later seized a laptop belonging to Motlhaleemang Moalosi, then a Master of Computer Science student at Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), alleging that the purported Facebook conversation between Molao and Amon was created from Moalosi’s laptop.
