Over 30,000 on the Ngwato Landboard waiting list

The board's secretary, Makgetsi Marata, says the NLB has started repossession of undeveloped plots and it is passing them to other committed developers to address the situation. He points out that undeveloped plots are a challenge that creates unnecessary waiting lists.

"Every month we are repossessing undeveloped residential plots, commercial plots and ranches," he notes. NLB is the biggest landboard entrusted with management of about 70 percent of the country's land.
