PALAPYE: Palapye deputy customary court president, Michael Maforaga, has complained to Palapye residents about the low turnout at Kgotla meetings. Maforaga was speaking during a poorly attended meeting on Wednesday, which ended with the leadership dispersing it without electing the committee.

. The committee is supposed to lead the BOT50 Independence celebration preparations.

The few who attended the meeting were presented a report on how 2015 funds were used. The committee which led the 2015 independence celebrations received P52,860.72 from the Palapye Administrative Authority, P11,212.30 from the District Commissioners’ office and donations totalling to P1,930 from different companies. After presentation of the budget, the people who attended the meeting decided not to go ahead with elections of the BOT50 celebrations preparations committee. The reason was that this year’s Independence celebration is  bigger hence it needs the community to decide who should lead them.
