As we bade farewell to Mr Molelowatladi, we welcomed Ms Mmopa  Juma who joined the Office as Deputy Auditor General on transfer  from Accountant General where she was Deputy Accountant General.  It is with great sadness that I have to report the untimely death of the  former Auditor General, and my former boss, Mosweu Bartholomew  Masisi, on the 20 March 2018, at the age of 74.

Mr Masisi’s deserved retirement in April 2003 marked the culmination of  34 years of illustrious career in the Office, 10 of which he held the  position of Auditor General The monetary values in this report are in the Pula currency, unless  expressly indicated.
