There is nothing: Tshenyego says there is nothing on the table PIC: MORERI SEJAKGOMO

The merger between the Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC) and the Botswana National Olympic Committee (BNOC) appears to be far from being realised.

What is key is that Botswana sport and Batswana have to be winners at the end of the day,” Serufho said. But Tshenyego dismissed the report, saying there are no merger talks.
