A high-powered Lesotho delegation has left for Washington over the weekend to plead with the United States government to cut crippling tariffs that have gutted Lesotho’s biggest private employer, the textile industry.

The mission is led by Trade, Industry and Small Business Minister Mokhethi Shelile and Finance Minister Dr Retšelisitsoe Matlanyane, joined by top industry players.

A labour union representative was supposed to be on the team but missed the trip after being added at the last minute and failing to sort out travel logistics.

A source within the delegation said they will not meet President Donald Trump, unlike some countries such as South Africa.

“We will definitely not be going to the White House. However, we have been assured that arrangements have been made for us to meet influential figures who can present our case to the powers that be in the U.S.,” he said.

The U.S. slapped a 15-percent tariff on Lesotho’s textile exports in August. Although far lower than the 50-percent hike once floated by former president Donald Trump, it is still high enough to make Lesotho products uncompetitive.

For nearly two decades, Lesotho’s garments entered the U.S. duty-free under the now-defunct African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA).

That lifeline vanished when Washington withdrew the trade concession, and the industry has been bleeding jobs ever since.

Some factories have tried to pivot to the European Union and South Africa, but those markets have yet to absorb the losses. Industry leaders warn that without quick relief, thousands more workers could lose their jobs.

National University of Lesotho (NUL) Vice-Chancellor Professor Isaac Olusola Fajana says he will not seek a second term when his five-year contract ends on July 6, 2026.

Professor Fajana made the announcement during his opening remarks at the university’s Annual General Meeting of the Council held at the Roma campus this week.

“I will be returning home,” he told council members, signalling the end of a tenure that began on August 2, 2021, when he became the 10th Vice-Chancellor of the country’s premier university.

Under NUL statutes, the vice-chancellor is appointed for a five-year term and is eligible for re-appointment. But the Nigerian academic, who holds a PhD in Industrial Relations from the University of Lagos, says he will not be taking up that option.
