The two councillors, Kebareeditse Ntsogotho, a resident of Khwai and sitting councillor for Khwai-Mabebe ward and deputy chairperson Lekone Masoko who is a resident of Maun and a sitting councillor for Shashe Ward say they were illegally removed from office on May 30, 2023 following a special council meeting.
The duo has since filed a notice of motion before Lobatse High Court judge, Justice Reuben Lekorwe seeking amongst others an order reviewing and setting aside NWDC’s decision to remove them from their position as chairperson and deputy chairperson respectively in its special full council. They want the said decision to remove them from them be reviewed and set aside on the basis that it was invalid and unlawful.
