The man doesn't take himself too seriously. He came from humble beginnings. He is bold, decicive, practical, easy-going, intelligent, patriotic, and more importantly, he strikes me as being transparent. He is the type of leader that Africa needs, and it also helps that he is young. Botswana couldn't have elected a better leader, in my opinion. 🇿🇦
Agree and societies deserve the leaders they get. Batswana have cultivated leadership excellence........from all telling Masisi was voted out because he began to demonstrate qualities that are anathema to this standard. The rest of us on the continent need to LEARN from this example. Retrogression accelerates when you normalize and tolerate mediocrity.
They call him doctor, they call him bold and excellent, they call him this that and the other words, but will he make Botswana a pharmaceutical and banking hub, i beg to differ ✌️
Lets wish him luck and give him our support, for sure. But we have to be realistic- we have seen too many false dawns around the world. Presidents do not have any power to make changes, in the scheme of things. The systems of government are set up in a way to maintain the status quo, esp if folks are benefitting from misgovernance.
With a population of 2.5 million people, and with this kind of thinking/attitude, Botswana has the potential of becoming higher income level economy, all the best Mr President
Listening to President Boko for the first time gives me comfort that the Botswana people have made a choice for vision, action and advancement. What is most significant is that he understands that processing ( manufacturing/value add) is key to improving the life and returns to Botswana . I will follow him with keen interest bearing in mind that the Botswana people democratically joined the African revolution for betterment, transparency and the dawn of African leadership free, hopefully, of western influence. If my assessment is correct, Africans are awoke to progressive and patriotic leadership, similar to the revered Ibrahim Traorè. I am bouyed by the fact that a coup is not the only way for visionary, peaceful, patriotic and a sovereign people are part of thought process of my fellow African man.
Am inspired Mr president. I did my BGCSE in Gaborone 2013. Was taught Mathematics by one of your colleagues from University of Botswana Mr Mozila. From Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 with love
They call him doctor, they call him bold and excellent, they call him this that and the other words, but will he make Botswana a pharmaceutical and banking hub, i beg to differ ✌️
That cut made me underestimate this guy my first time of listening to him speak I had go listen without watching this video to avoid prejudice mentality from my side. Very articulated very intelligent very demure . Welldone Botswana.
AGISM WITHOUT CHARACTOR IS JUST NULL AND VOID. THESE ARE EASY SELL-OUTS WITH NARROW EXPERIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING. DON'T UNDERESTIMATE WISDOM THAT COMES WITH AGE...
Quite impressed by the thoughtfulness of President Boko's articulation of the thinking that is behind the proposed policies of his new government. Cold facts and solid evidence will guide his policies, always being alive and sensitive to Botswana's interests and the realization that Botswana is not and cannot be an island unto itself. Now we eagerly wait to see how the real work on the ground -- the implementation of these policies -- unfolds.❤
You can not deny the knowledge this man has from the way he conduct himself. The way he is full of respect for other parties gives more credit to his legacy
This interview is mind blowing Africa needs this crop of leaders.Congrats to Batswana people and i hope this inspires other SADC countries to get rid of tired,vengeaful and corrupt crop of politicians who have ruled and stifled development for decades
There is a song here in Botswana, normally used for elections, it goes like' Thank you for blessing our land, Botswana beautiful land, thank you for the leaders you have given, thank you, thank you Lord!" We are blessed!
Thank you my President for your answers..I liked it so much when you answered the corruption part...you do not need to be vindictive...hunt so and so...evidence and the law...greatly and wisely said sir...heads off 😊
Few yrs ago..2014 to be precise,while doing house to house..campaigning for President Boko/UDC one former colleague of his from University of Botswana told us,’ you are campaigning for an intellectual par excellence,taking him pound for pound with Barack Obama he will match him & maybe Obama may only beat him with wisdom’ I’m happy to now acknowledged the man has grown and proud to refer him as my President.
Not the same barrack that’s campaigning for the incompetent Harris. I certainly hope Boko is not “Liberal” like the democrats. That is not our society. We don’t do THEY/THEM, we want a better economy, we want strict laws on abortion etc
Masisi believes in looting and he’s never been fit to lead. He doesn’t have the education and putting Masisi in the same sentence with my boy is an insult. Duma doesn’t insult anyone Masisi ne a roga batho abd is extremely arrogant and narcissistic
Such an insightful and educative interview. Thank you Mr President for making us regain trust and vision in leadership. To Ausi Sophie, "You remain a solid, objective, and professional journalist even in today s world of captured media personals, Ra leboga Mma, we learn from you every day.
What a new height of potentiality for Botswana. What a brilliant idea of bringing the opposition parties to a coalition to take down the prosperity predator. To all the opposition parties that came together for this man and the people of Botswana at large, congratulations, May Your Nation Prosper into a Wonderful and Wealthy one. Blessings be with you. Your Economic uptrender is Here. Captain Botswana " Duma Boko"😮 🙇♂️ love from 🇳🇦
The most humble leader,Africa has ever had,in his shoes,I don't wanna lie, I wouldn't remain this calm,I would" fix" my opponents to the core,but this is a " servant leader" by the people for the people,he just shouldn't be too "soft" though
A rare African President. We will support him to make Batswana et Africa great. We're a rich continent yet our masses live a disheartening et poor life. Congrats Mr President Duma Boko.
I like what I am hearing from this intelligent, éloquent and matter of fact gentleman. I am hopeful for continued peace and prospérity in Botswana. Some other African nations need to take example.
Wow this is really a wind of change and so encouraging to see the President who is so vested in the happening's in Botswana watch this dispensation and the sky is not the limit for this administration a model is being set for Africa
This is what we need as people of this continent. But love should lead as it is in the heart of president of Botswana. He speaks out of Love. I followed him and I have learned about Love. Because with love you will examine the situation than to act with emotion.
Botswana economically stable country, well governed and Botswana pula stronger than the rand. Hope you take your country to greater heights i reserve judgement let me review in 5/10 years
A lot is happening in this world...wish ma mum was alive to witness what the man he used to luv ...most is now the president and what he is doing 😢😢😢😢love you a lot for what you doing Ma president
Intellectualism and Integrity, perseverance and resilience, all coupled in a leadership by people for people, all the best Mr.President in your endeavours towards cementing the beacon of democracy in Africa and building a nation of peace, harmony and prosperity.
During his campaign I had problem with his arrogance talking. Now slowly I turn to be convinced by his repentance. Mr Boko is now talking sense to me o. I thank you Mr President.

Watching this is quite refreshing and instilling hope in me. I wish we could copy and paste to us your neighbour. Congratulations President Duma Boko 🎉🙏🏾
It is sad that corruption has infiltrated all government departments to the extent that getting help without giving out something is very difficult. I wish our leader should address these issues. Corruption destroys a country.
This fellow was a student leader from primary, to to high school, to university. He looks unphased by leadership, does not have too much political speak, speaks in simple language, clear in what he says. He reminds me of what they said about Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe, who had the same path, village boy, goes to missionary school, becomes student leader from primary school to varsity, becomes a lecturer and is fond of writing and debating. This might be the embodiment of the Messiah the people of Botswana were told about.
