Former Botswana president Ian Khama talks about his plan to return to his country and fight for the democracy it was under his rule. He explains to GGA SADC executive director Chris Maroleng how incumbent president Mokgweetsi Masisi continues to erode the rule of law in Botswana, and allowed wildlife in the country to fall into the hands of poachers. “Two-thirds of our wildlife has been poached under his watch,” says Khama. Khama has long denied reports that he is in exile in South Africa, or that he had fled the country after threats to arrest him and security agency searches at his home. He also claims there had been an attempt to poison him in the run-up to Botswana’s 2019 general elections.

Can the batswanas pass a better verdict : Was life better under leadership of Khama in Botswana or it is better under the current leadership of Masisi? Lots of love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤️

No normal person or loyal cityzen can support this man

@barrywhite5577 2 года назад

Why can't he just leave politics as he should have? What is so hard about retiring and just disappearing from the public eye?

@lukahiya 2 года назад

He maybe could have, the problem is that the current president pinned his hopes on the waning popularity of his predecessor and launched an onslaught of accusations to garner success at the polls in 2019; even theft, overturned most of his policies and frustrated him and his family. As former president he is entitled to certain privileges, these were being revoked as well, to the extent of changing his trusted workers and security detail, even kitchen staff.

I don't much on what's going on behind scenes in Botswana. Am not a tswana but have always cherished the democracy over the years! Democracy is not cheap, it needs to be protected at all costs. Some of us have lived in countries where there is democracy and also where democracy doesn't thrive. I just wish for the best for Botswana and hope they forever live in harmony with each other as brothers and sisters. Would hate to hear that there's a war going on in Botswana!

Dear President Khama, I wish you the very best in your desire to try and help restore the greatness of Botswana. Your people and so many of us other Africans who love and wish Botswana well, count on you. Long live Botswana 🇧🇼 ! Much love ❤ from Cameroon 🇨🇲 !

Thanks

@glenmalesa8902 2 года назад

But it was Ian iron fist running of Botswana that started all these. Even the late Masire was concerned to an extent that he started supporting Masisi.

@muchachandra3938 2 года назад

Usually the people you help are the ones who turns against you.. The reason is that you kmow their secrets better than anyone else. You are a threat.

@glenmalesa8902 2 года назад

@@muchachandra3938 also, they "help" you because they are expecting to rule from the grave when their tenure is over.

@nyakalemoroka7439 2 года назад

True, Khama had dictatorial tendencies

@ceciliapitse2050 Год назад

He was soo much concerned for wildlife conservation bcos he has a share with all the pple who run all the business deals on wildlife

@zachariahkwada9988 2 года назад

So there was no wildlife conservation and tourism in Botswana before Khama became the President?

@nkatazophiri8659 2 года назад

I am not in favour of any body but to answer for your own knowledge. Him was a soldier he had passion while he was there.

@kamogelomosweu1869 2 года назад

It has always been there way before Khama was a president. All the game and nature reserves were established before he became a president. Its only that its his bread and basket and he wants to control it

@tendanipelaelo6293 2 года назад

We have always had protected wildlife from way back so I don't understand what he's trying to prove

@levysiachitema3038 Год назад

Yes mr president you use to walk without security.That's true.

@covenantoffireministries9015 2 года назад

Very true

@muchachandra3938 2 года назад

Every home is run in a certain way. If you divorce your wife and I marry her, can I take you to court? Just fix it in the way you think is right. As long as I'm have not taken away what doesn't belong to me, I don't deserve unnecessary prosecution

@desteriusshitsamamulama828 Год назад

This guy set up the DIS that was responsible of the disappearance of many. Sadly we remember John Kalafatis

@ernestmalonkane8668 2 года назад

We love Botswana 🇧🇼❤, we pray for Botswana 🇧🇼, we pray for the Khama Family🙏, the forerunners in the founding of the Republic of Botswana.

Yes yes yes yes

@theheel209 2 года назад

I thought that he was a soldier, why is he running?

@miriamtawirengana1901 2 года назад

Khama it's over for u yu are so cruel especially with the foreigners

@chrismolf2530 2 года назад

So he is blaming the burning of a minister's car on the current leadership? Lol! This man has lost his mind. The reason the security was tight was because not long ago people who support you were pledging violence against him at that bizarre and unprecedented, rowdy Kgotla meeting. You are formenting unrest in our country. On the reconciliation issue, you refused to cooperate with the team led by former president Mogae. You should tell the world the truth.

@zenzomuchimba2490 2 года назад

But this man ruled for 20 years it means he was good for you, so plz why do you want your country to be unsafe. Stop persecuting this man, iam sure he is the one who appointed Masisi to be president.
