The 56-year-old son of Botswana's founding father Seretse Khama is facing his first election since taking over the reigns last April from his predecessor Festus Mogae who retired after serving his maximum ten years as president. I would imagine that this was a country that was a symbol of hope to the rest of the Africa when Sir Seretse Khama, the founding father of that nation pulled its from its poor background to its current economic might; and today that image is eroded by Khama junior who had since turn his interest to his maternity uncles leaving his people scratching their in disbelief of what isn't African culture. |
