Kweneng Land Board’s COVID-19 excuses rejected

The Board that is currently butting heads with nine employees accused of failing to subdivide and allocate their ploughing fields despite the approval of their application to that effect in 2019. It had failed to file court documents including an answering affidavit when the matter was first brought against it.

The Board had then tried to use the COVID-19 pandemic as one of the reasons for it to have failed to file on time but the Court rejected the excuse.
