  • There are concerns over alleged deterioration of human rights in Botswana, ahead of the 2024 elections. The judicial arm of the AU has accused the government of using the criminal justice system to silence political dissent. Adam Smith-Anthony weighs in.

    No surprises here!
    Now that the government of Botswana is demanding a higher share of the country's mineral resources as well as economic empowerment of its citizens, all of a sudden there's human rights abuse...
    We have seen this scenario way too many times in the African continent. The next move will be the destabilization of the country 😢

    Oh I forget that now that the government of Botswana wants a larger stake in it's own resources, as has happened in the past with other countries, all of a sudden there is human rights abuses in the country.

    This is a stupid interview. Why not engage people on the ground as well and get the other side of the story? Who is this guy?

    Maaka fela. Bad journalism.This is rubbish and concerning for ordinary Motswana like me. Y’all are deliberately tarnishing our name as a country.
    Why not interview news reporters from Botswana or Opposition leaders at least? Why do u have to interview a white person living far away from Bots? What could he possibly know more than Batswana living in the country. It’s disrespectful to us.
    “There are worries that those seeking to politically assemble are being restricted “ worries from who? You guys? Speak for yourself or at least name someone. Former president Khama has his own beef with the incumbent and he has apparently been caught with illegal firearms , it has nothing to do with the rest of us as a country. Just choose a side btn the two and stop making it look like the country’s political landscape is deteriorating. The rest of us are good over here. Newzroom Afrika, just tell us you’ve been paid to pick a side in this beef and stop making it look like it has something to do with us as a country. We know Khama is very wealthy(from stealing the country’s resources) and influential and highly connected worldwide.
    And the interviewee failed to answer the question about if there is a team to be sent to Botswana to come and investigate or this is just a baseless smear campaign with no intentions to find facts?
    We all know that this comes from the ongoing negotiations for our country to get a better stake on our diamonds. This is pathetic

    There should be a way to hold such reporting agencies accountable for their irresponsible and dangerous reporting. This is shameless reporting at best.

    The South African Government is currently under investigation by the African Court of Justice for human Rights violations during COVID, how about reporting on this instead of picking on some minor allegations in Botswana?
