The Botswana Football Association (BFA) will not release the names of a three-man committee appointed this week to probe allegations of match-fixing due to the "sensitive nature of the matter".

Concerns of match-fixing emerged after an audio clip featuring the voices believed to be those of referee, Joshua Bondo and BFA official, Monnakgotla Mojaki was leaked recently.

The Ministry of Youth, Sport, Gender and Culture as well as the Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC) urged the BFA to get to the bottom of the matter. In response, the BFA appointed a three-man committee this week but did not release the names of the members. Amid concerns, the integrity of the committee could be compromised without the public scrutinising their profiles.

Exercise extra caution!

Unfortunately, petty thieves tend to be more vicious around this time as they also prepare for the festive season. Culturally, many Batswana go home for the holiday, and petty thieves are amongst those who go home. Burglaries, car break-ins, and attacks on unsuspecting pedestrians seem to be on the rise!That is not all, as scammers continue to take money from pensioners as well as other Batswana who may fall prey to their unscrupulous tactics....
