Rain threatens Golden Grand Prix :: Mmegi Online

Botswana National Sports Commission (BNSC) Director of Business Development and Property Management, Makuke Makuke has advised that if the rains continue to persist over the next few days, the FNB Botswana Golden Grand Prix might have to be postponed by two weeks.

The BNSC is running against time to hand over the stadium to Golden Door Sports Agency for the much-anticipated Grand Prix slated for this Saturday. With the rains continuing to pour through the city, Makuke raised fears that the Grand Prix might not come to fruition. “If the situation continues as it is, I mean the rains, it means that there will be no venue for the event and if there is no venue for the event it basically means there could be no event,” Makuke warned.

Makuke indicated that they had anticipated that by now, the stadium would have been handed over to the organising committee.
