The 5,000 jobs 'dream' is achievable- Letshwiti :: Mmegi Online

Botswana Football Association (BFA) president, Maclean Letshwiti will seek a second term when delegates converge in Francistown for an elective General Assembly on August 22. In response to a Mmegi Sport questionnaire, Letshwiti talks about the 5,000 jobs target, and the reason why he decided to run for a second term after his initial indication he will only stand for one term

Mmegi Sport: People would want to know about the 5,000 jobs, what happened?

Letshwiti: The 5 000 jobs was a political statement, it was a dream. It is a possible dream if all structures are in place. It’s achievable, that’s why we are busy trying to put together a solid coherent and functional structure in place. It’s possible because football is multifaceted, and there is a lot of jobs from all sectors of the game, both informal and formal. The PSL is at 13000 jobs as we speak. We can achieve 5000 if we work hard at it.
