We are especially proud of those who voted for the Alliance for Progressives. We are inspired by citizens, unsung heroes who sacrificed their time and opportunities to fight for what they believe in, this new Botswana, this paragon of nation building and prosperity on the African continent. They fought a good fight, in a quest to lift our nation above the daunting challenges of our time.

We are failing as a nation to build an economy that will employ, utilise and reward the majority of our citizens with a quality life. Our government as a system is superficially democratic, without checks and balances against the abuse of power. The Executive branch of Government makes the laws, implements the laws and decides without any inhibitions who can sit in the judiciary.
