Over 24k plots availed for Bonno programme

Gabane-Mmankgodi legislator Kagiso Mmusi had asked the minister whether he issued a special directive to Land Boards to speed up land allocations for Bonno projects, if so, how many plots have been allocated across the country and which companies benefited. Mmusi also wanted to know what happens to people who have been on the waiting lists for plots for many years, and whether those people also do not deserve a special dispensation to be allocated plots speedily, and when they can expect to be allocated plots.

Ramogapi said the ministry has asked the Land Boards to facilitate the Bonno National Housing Programme by allocating land to the Government of Botswana. This is in aid of speeding up the construction of and access to housing by, amongst others, people who need accommodation but may not have the capital to undertake the underlying developments.
