Minister of Lands and Agriculture, Dr Edwin Dikoloti, has told Parliament that his Ministry is aware of the ground cracks, commonly known as land fissures, occurring at Hatsalatladi in Molepolole North constituency.

“On January 23, 2025, I joined a delegation led by the Minister for State President, Defense, and Security, Moeti Mohwasa, to assess the situation firsthand and engage with the affected community,” Dikoloti said when addressing a question from the Member of Parliament for Molepolole North constituency, Arafat Khan.

“This phenomenon is not isolated to Hatsalatladi; similar fissures have been reported in Letlhakeng, Motshegaletau, and Moshupa, amongst others,” he added.
