Swedish change of government costs Lobatse, SPTC partnership

SELEBI-PHIKWE: The change of government in Sweden has cost Lobatse and Selebi-Phikwe town councils a partnership with Swedish Trolhattan Municipality on waste management.

Selebi-Phikwe Town Council (SPTC) Mayor Tebogo Matlhogonolo has confirmed that Trollhattan Municipality has withdrawn from the partnership leaving Lobatse Town Council (LTC) and SPTC the only partners in the arrangement.

He explained that Sweden changed government after its general elections and those who supported the initiative were voted out and the new government felt that the partnership was not their priority.
