Minister of Higher Education, Prince Maele, has given the University of Botswana (UB) management an ultimatum to complete the ongoing restructuring process or face consequences.

Maele made the remarks earlier this week at a meet-and-greet session hosted for the newly appointed UB Council members. Despite stating that the council members’ appointment takes effect from 1st January 2026, Maele had the ongoing restructuring on his mind.

To this end, he indicated that they identified credible individuals who will help with good governance within UB and offer strategic direction to the public institution. Maele noted that the council has a duty to hit the ground running in January. He said the council must work with management to ensure that they finish the restructuring, which has been ongoing for five years.
