BOTHA BOTHE — The Land Administration Authority (LAA) today launched an initiative aimed at bringing its services closer to communities across Lesotho. The initiative is designed to improve service delivery by coordinating with various service providers and ensuring that citizens can access essential services in one place.
According to the Director General and Chief Executive Officer of LAA, Mrs. Malichaba Lekhoaba, the initiative is part of LAA’s mandate as a parastatal to improve land-related service provision and promote awareness of land rights.
“We saw the need to bring services closer to the people by visiting their districts alongside other service providers, so they can access multiple services in one palce in a single day,” she said.
She explained that the initiative, officially launched today, will expand to other districts and grow in scope as it progresses.
“We are also here to raise awareness about people’s rights to land and how they can acquire the necessary documents to keep their land safe and protected. Many people lose their land rights due to lack of information, so we aim to educate and empower communities,” she added.
Mrs. Lekhoaba further revealed that LAA plans to open new offices in Berea, Mokhotlong, Qacha’s Nek, and Thaba-Tseka to enhance accessibility and improve efficiency. .
