He implored residents of Boteti and Batswana at large to use the Secure Land Title wisely, and reap its benefits to improve their lives.
His Honour made a call to everyone who is left behind in registering land to go and register and have ownership of their land.
The Acting Deputy Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Lands, Water and Sanitation highlighted that, the Secure Land Title has significant security features which will make it difficult for people to fake. He said, Batswana have been cheated in the past as people produced fake certificates and sold land they did not own. He said the security features will curb this problem.
