Let me salute the foundation of resistance. On this important day, June 16, I’m joining President of South Africa, Cyril Matamela Ramaphosa et al. at Hector Peterson Memorial in Soweto for the commemoration of day of African child. Today marks 50 years since the massacre of young people by the brutal apartheid regime in 1976. We celebrate the fallen heroes and heroines. We thank them for their sacrifice.

Asked the lady who cleans our offices, for the 3rd time, if she could go extra mile with mine since I’ve recently been diagnosed with dust allergy & haven’t been feeling well. Her response. “O ikemele ka dinao, batho ba goloha ba a taboga.” I didn’t even ask what she meant 😂😂

Today, I had the honour of holding a productive bilateral meeting with my Serbian counterpart, Honourable Zoran Gajić, Minister of Sport of the Republic of Serbia, in Belgrade, Serbia, as part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen cooperation between Botswana and Serbia in the area of sport development. Our discussions focused on identifying strategic opportunities for mutual collaboration and shared growth within the sport sector. Key areas of engagement included school sport development, sport science, exchange programmes, scholarships for athletes, coaches and sport administrators, as well as capacity building initiatives aimed at enhancing the professionalisation of sport in our respective countries. We both acknowledged the critical role that international partnerships play in advancing sport excellence, fostering youth empowerment, and promoting social development through sport and recreation. In this regard, Botswana and Serbia have agreed to work towards the development of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that will formalize and guide cooperation between our two nations in the field of sport. This engagement marks another important milestone in Botswana’s commitment to strengthening international relations and creating meaningful opportunities that contribute to the growth and transformation of our sport sector. I was accompanied by the Chief Executive Officer of the Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC), Ministry officials, and BNSC management. Our delegation is in Belgrade at the invitation and generous support of the Ministry of Sport of Serbia. #SportsAndArts #SportsDiplomacy #BotswanaSerbia

Politicians can talk good all they want but reality is that things on the ground are dire. We can’t be talking about co-hosting AFCON when many are asked to buy themselves “giving set” before they go into theatre at Princess Marina Hospital. Simply google “giving set” to see what it is, it’s not something you easily buy in a pharmacy like all other things Batswana have been buying. UDC MP’s ke kopa le seka la lebala ko re go tswang, a re tseyeng Batswana ka tlhwaafalo🙏🏾.

I hope Julius Malema is listening because he was the one telling us of the US military in Botswana.💔

Govt believes PR means having graduates from Social Science and Political Science is PR. PR thing its more of a technical business of relaying information in a simplified and acceptable manner to provide clarity. Its not as easy as calling a Presser/Releasing a statement.

Wabepo lets be honest Government must start engaging private PR Firms when there are disasters like this to manage the PR, Information. Currently the Ministry of Agriculture has lost the peoples sympathy and PR war. Most importantly the farmers sympathy

For EU and similar markets to happen we still need to step up our disease control measures. To contain any similar outbreaks, we have the expertise and we can use available resources to do it.
