Missing child sparks unrest in Lobatse — #BringBackTlotso

Lobatse community members protested on Monday night to express anger and frustration over the disappearance of Tlotso Karema on March 18.

Residents burnt tires and blocked some roads last night, demanding some action from Botswana Police Service to help find the child. Riot police from the Special Support Group were called in to quell the protests. Peleng East councilor Ontiretse Mosimanewamacha blamed the delay in releasing a report of Police investigations for the riots.

Faced with a decline in advertising, Snapchat has laid off 1,300 employees

As the social media industry battles a decline in advertising, the company behind Snapchat is slashing funding in projects like augmented reality glasses and laying off roughly 1,300 employees.
