That airstrip at the edge of Gaberones is now in the middle of a small subburb in Gaborone (next to our national stadium). The city is unrecognizeable from the humble beginnings

As an African (Nigerian, specifically) it saddens me how little known Seretse Khama is in much of present Africa. Many of us here are so quick to hail Gaddafi or Idi Amin or Abacha or Sankara or some other military thug as a "good leader" 😢. He was the greatest leader in Africa. He and Botswana's tribal leaders worked to improve their country by good socioeconomic systems and political systems. They enbraced and modified what the British left them and today, Botswana is among the most politically stable a d economically strong African countries despite having less land and resources than Zimbabwe and South Africa which are both facing crises.

Seretse's return looked as dangerous as Lumumba's rise. If Dulles had investments in Botswana, their history would have been very different and sad.
