Presidential Affairs Minister, Daniel Kwelagobe has outlined three cases in which Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP), Eric Molale is alleged to have interferred in the affairs of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC). In a statement to Parliament yesterday, Kwelagobe said the IEC Secretary, Gabriel Seeletso, refused to accept the PSP’s appointment of an officer who had succeeded in an interview in favour of one who had failed the interview. Kwelagobe emphasised that the IEC, like any other independent institution, does not exist in an administrative vacuum with their own separate rules and procedures, hence Molale’s actions regarding IEC affairs. The statement followed a request from the Member of Parliament for Gaborone North, Keletso Rakhudu that the Presidential Affairs Minister should brief the House on the allegations about the purported interference and meddling in the affairs of the IEC by Molale. read more
