Firstly Mr Masisi is the President of Botswana not the so called president. Your family consists of individuals who could have broken the law one way or another.
With due respect to Botswana processes, laws, cultural values etc, what is the charge to the former president's relatives. I conspicuously heard Ex President Khama say they were not formally charged. If that is the case then that is consistent with the way ZanuPf and Mnangagwa do business in Zimbabwe. I am sorry, should Botswana take that route it is doomed.
A rule of law must prevail, irrespective of who the person is. We were convinced that Botswana was governed well, but it seems corruption has taken an upper hand ✋️.
My friend corruption is all over the world but once you start looting to an extent of leaving the ordinary people suffering that is not good the people of Botswana have never complained about this man, and they will will remember this man ,in Africa when Botswana was under this man it was one of the best country ,give it few years from now then Batswana will know what corruption is
@@Boboroska You dont know what you are talking about. Khama is the worst president ever Botswana has had. We have had very humble and visionary men who have developed this country. The biggest mistake they made was to bring this man in the ruling party
@@Boboroska Your wish...we are very strong nation. We have heard this 25 years back from our neighbours especially where you come from....because I can tell where you are coming from. You guys are very predictable
His family wasn't also detained in secrecy. Also, in Bots, the death penalty applies. If JZ did his deeds in Bots rather than SA, he would be on death row
ENCA and Sabc are trying hard to tarnish our country. Staged interviews won't work, rule of law shall prevail. Point of correction, HE Dr EM Masisi is our elected president and there is nothing that can change. Respect our President and constitution.
Democracy still works in our country. Khama ran away from the 2 billion dollar that the US caught which was stolen by him. That's why the government wants him
Many of us sympathize with the former Botswana President Ian Khama. However, some of us think that Ian Khama should retire completely and let the current President Mogkweetsi Masisi rule the country the way he wants. These activities in which former President Ian Khama is involved are tarnishing the image of Botswana as a democratic country that smoothly handles the issue of leadership succession.
If this guy was allowed to give his brother to become a president we would be a dictatorship right the mess started when this guy became a president DIS was established by him his former friends in the army joined him to be honest what is happening in Botswana is because of him and the bdp
Mr. Iah Khama, you put in place this violence in Botswana. When you took the reigns of power in that country, the first thing you did, was to transform Botswana into a police state. You put in place the machinery of the DIS, and transformed Kgosi (the then head of the DIS) into a monster. Extrajudicial killings started in Botswana. Corruption took root during your term as President. Patronage became the norm of the day in Botswana. You expropriated massive portions of the land in Botswana. Masisi was right next to you, seeing how you executed the system. He played your game, until you (fortunately or unfortunately) named him your successor. Mr. Ian Khama, you can't eat your cake and have it - unfortunately. Nobody could have believed at the time that one day you will run away from Botswana and take refuge in South Africa. Well that is the vanity about political power...its so elusive...unfortunately other politicians will not learn.
Well said,he is misleading people, DIS killed people and assaulted some during his tenure,can he mention only 1 person who was assaulted or killed by the DIS under the current administration
The giant Mr Mugabe has never run away from his country who was taken by force off power it is impossible why Masisi your deputy accept he has seen how you have been pushing people around because you were in power otherwise you would have been at peace in your country why all of the sudden when it was time for you to hand over power just like you thought Namibia is nothing in front of you today here we are mr president listen and respect others affairs please Ian Masisi is in charge of the country let him run your time has expired
" when a judge tells me, confides in me that look, you're not gonna win this case". Pardon my ignorance but is this not an admission of a captured judge? Or at the very least an extremely biased judge? To call a defendant and tell him that he/she is not going to win a case is a total lack of neutrality on the judge. Furthermore he also stated that "judges" call him. Isn't that a clear admission of a captured judiciary?
@BNG could it not be that the judges reaching out of him are doing so out concern being aware of what been cooked against him ? Onces judges are put under pressure by a sitting government to rule a certain way the neutrality is out the window so the lines are drawn. So the judges giving him a heads up are not wrong at all given that the other side has concocted the outcome never the less.
Yes indeed African leaders always waste time in witch hunting instead of concentrating on development. I think Masisi should just focus on the things concerning the citizens
@@zachariahkwada9988 but that is a scratched record that all African leaders do to their predecessors. The best way to fight corruption is to strengthen the institutions and make the system work BUT going after individuals is always witch hunting. Has corruption ended in his present administration? Because its where Masisi should concentrate not that version we know it, we see it. It's an African version of trying to establishing a power base.
@@zachariahkwada9988 alright Chief all the best. We all wish to be in a state where corruption is a thing of the past. So if the former president stole people's taxes then let the law take it's course.

Le wena Zachariah o yethe
Masisi is not fit for office physically mentally and intellectually batswana know this. He has no education to lead at all or is he mentally capable of bein in office. He copied a whole Obama speech imagine and it out loud with confidence is that normal? 😂😂😂😂
Khama made a big mistake by resigning from the ruling party and going to support another party and unfortunately that party he publicly supported lost.
How is such a choice is a big mistake? Democracy demands that we choose whatever political party we want to support. We must condemn all evil acts by the so-called intelligence units
Enca doing what it does best giving wrong people attention. Ask yourselves why the whole country doesn't like khama nor his family. Go and research. U will get the answer

Looks like Botswana President Mashishi has turned into a tyrant, a dictator of some sort, what a shame. African leaders must learn that its not wrong to have people who do not agree with you that's democracy. I never thought it would happen to a country like Botswana they should have learnt from other countries. It's wrong totally wrong! Cry the beloved country! 😢🇧🇼🇧🇼
stop giving Happy Sindane airtime.. i don't know much about Botswana politics but when he said 'so called President' i knew that there is a problem with him, white arrogance perhaps?
Guy's I love my country but Ian is wrong, and he must account for what they did... They is a lot which happened during his time... Masisi knows the truth he was his boy. His right hand so boss don't lie to the world please
Why didn't you ENCA interview Jacob Zuma when he's being treated unfairly in South Africa. There's nothing negative about Botswana, the negativity was during this man's time.
Zuma has been interviewed multiple times by our media. And by the way he's not been unfairly treated as you say he has to face the rule of law like any citizen who has been suspected to be on the wrong side of the law to get an opportunity to clear his name. He's been ducking and diving to get into the courtroom why ? SA wants answers from him if he's innocent then that's fine! The country needs to know what happened with Guptas, Arms deal etc, that's all we want to know!
By who? And by the way he is a Former President and not a President, he is relevant to you not every Motswana thinks much of him he played his part we appreciate that and respect him but fighting our democratically elected President will not be tolerated that he must know

He used to criticize Mugabe but Mugabe was respected by his Pan African compatriots. Karma is biting him back, now he has to flee his country like a refugee, Zuma, Mbeki and Ramaphosa don't care about him. You have to forge strong Pan African links if you want to be respected because westerners won't help you. This is Africa, not Ukraine.
@ Stink Dem - Ian Khama was also corrupt. The first oppressive dictator of Botswana. He silenced the opposition, journalists and anyone who dared speak out. Now the ruthless DISS he created is coming to torment him
@@Accuface2000 you don’t know what a dictator is,why all along people of Botswana were quiet no riots no demonstrations if he was real a dictator you people you would have been on the streets now and then,be patient Batswana the dictator are coming
@Stink Dem - You are not African, look at what Motswanas are saying about him on social media. Also do some research, you will find media reports of his human rights abuses. Since he was a pro-western dictator, western media didn't report negatively about him, but local media as well as Amnesty International and other non-aligned organizations did report his atrocities. Riots and protests were not allowed during his regime because of fear of reprisals. Journalists were harassed and prosecuted. Besides, Botswana is a small population which can be easily controlled and repressed, unlike a big country like South Africa which is hard to control.
