Masimolole accused of sidelining opposition

The three councillors, who are from the Botswana Congress Party (BCP), have complained that Masimolole deliberately left them out of a meeting held to introduce councilors before the village leadership. They say they got wind of the meeting after it ended and were shocked to learn that only the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) councillors had attended.

"We wondered why he left us out. I mean even though we are opposition councillors it is a fact that we have to work together to help develop the village. We intend to meet him to address this issue," said Johnson Rowland, Mogoditshane Central North councilor.
