Phikwe council drama continues

SELEBI-PHIKWE: Drama continued into the second day of the full council session when councilors deferred a session to discuss the mayor's speech saying that it will be discussed on the day the mayor chooses to discuss previous minutes.

They resolved this through a vote.

The Mayor, Lekang Mukokomani, is in South Africa on official business and his deputy Batlhaedi Mponwane is holding the fort. When the session resumed on Thursday to discuss the speech councillor Molefhe Molatlhegi proposed that the speech be deferred just like the minutes that they had been ordered not to discuss by the absent mayor. He was then seconded. However Councillor Koos Mashaba opposed the move arguing that he does not understand how the house could allow the speech to be read only to defer it for the next day. He was of the feeling that the speech be discussed and adopted and this was seconded by councilor Leungo Mataio.
