Motumise Steals The Show :: Mmegi Online

Veteran attorney Omphemetse Motumise stole the show during the case in which Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) is against the membership of Botswana Federation of Public Sector Unions (BOFEPUSU) in the Public Sector Bargaining Council (PBSC).

The urgent application that started at 11am and ended at 9.30pm last Friday attracted many unionists and observers in the courtroom of the Industrial Court Judge President Tebogo Maruping. Motumise, whose candidacy to the bench was rejected by President Ian Khama, kept the court alive with his sense of humour and sharp legal brain complimented by body language.

He was appearing for the PSBC and PSBC general secretary Willard Ulaula. “What really does BOPEU want? You don’t see that in their prayers. They don’t say what they want in their orders. Their first primary objective is to dislodge BOFEPUSU from the bargaining table,” submitted Motumise.
