Peloetletse bemoans fake news

This follows the circulation of a purported memo claiming that President Duma Boko had travelled with his family members, security and office staff using four aircraft during his recent private visit to South Africa. Peloetletse said the memo was fake and called on the media to always verify information they receive.

A document titled Internal Communication, marked as strictly confidential, with a subject line: Security and Travel Arrangements – External Visit, made rounds on social media, circulated by some online media houses. The document was further circulated by opposers of the Duma Boko administration, including former legislator Tumisang Healy, who attacked the President, alleging that Boko was abusing public funds to benefit his family.
