The petition revealed that Delta Dairies owed Tswana Fuel and eight other companies close to P10 million in respect of services provided to the company, founded by  citizen Dr Howard Sigwele. When the matter resumed last week, attorney representing Delta Dairies, Muller Keganne, who stood on behalf of Nancy Kiggundu, requested the high court to postpone the judgement for 30 days, stating that there were ongoing negotiations between the Delta Dairies and the creditors.
