Ntuane tells two ministers to quit

The MP called for the heads of the Minister of Environment, Wildlife and Tourism, Kitso Mokaila; and his Youth, Sport and Culture colleague, Shaw Kgathi because Botswana did not derive any meaningful benefit from the just ended World Cup held in neighbouring South Africa. He said that if they fail to voluntarily leave their posts, President Ian Khama should sack them because they have failed to deliver - an obsession with the president.

Ntuane tabled a motion in Parliament yesterday requesting government to institute a commission of enquiry with the objective of determining why, despite massive investment of public money into a variety of infrastructure projects, Botswana did not derive any meaningful benefit from the 2010 FIFA World Cup. He said the commission should apportion responsibility for the failure and recommend appropriate action.
