Justice Michael Leburu has postponed a case in which Botswana Federation of Public Sector Unions (BOFEPUSU) seeks to restrain President Ian Khama and director of Directorate of Public Service Management (DPSM) Carter Morupisi from determining Bargaining Council negotiations. Moreover, BOFEPUSU has been ordered to pay wastage costs for yesterday’s application.

Respondents, attorney David Moloise appearing with Nchunga Nchunga and Ditto Molodi, argued that on April 7, 2014, they were served with the application and had been busy consulting with their principals.
