- Upon gaining independence in 1966, Botswana was the third poorest country in the whole world. The country had only 22 graduates and 100 high school graduates. The majority of its population were herders and subsistence farmers.
Five decades later, Botswana has a GDP per capita of over 18000 USD, which is more than the GDP per capita of Brazil and Argentina combined and more than 9 times the GDP per capita of Nigeria. The story of this miracle hinged upon the leadership of Sir Seretse Khama.
In this episode, we will learn the life and legacy of this great African.

What a selfless leader!
Such attributes are lacking in the current crop of leaders we have.
My favorite African leader has been Nelson Mandela but it seems I've found a new one in Khama.
It's refreshing to know about this selfless man. Breaking barriers has always been the goal and he is one big inspiration to achieving that.
Seretse Khama is the most underrated African leader, and by extension Botswana too, I doubt if many Africans know so much about Botswana, this incredible story of successful transformation.
My favourite African leader!
Simply Amazing Butiful i watched the movie but it never mentioned any of this it feel joyful happy and its always a good feeling to hear success stories coming out of are believed Africa ❤
I like Khama, he is Botswana immortal. His heart and soul REST in the power
This was so inspiring to watch
Khama is an Africa legacy.
Khama was a breath of fresh air. He is my greatest African leader
Thank you very much for enlightening my knowledge about this African hero.
Seretse Khama was born to rule!
Long Live The King
You've put it best. He was born to rule!
Seretse Khama was an inspirational leader! His commitment to democracy and economic development is a true legacy. He played a key role in Botswana's history. There are many great African leaders, each with their own strengths. This video is a great starting point to learn more 🙃
Educative and enlightening as always. Thanks for your consistency and hard work in sharing such great value.
My greatest African leader is Thomas Sankara of BurkinaFaso. He demonstrated great vision for the nation and selfless leadership in making it happen. Keep it up bro 👍
Seretse Khama was definitely a key figure in African history. His leadership in Botswana's independence and development is inspiring. (This is neutral and acknowledges his importance.)
Botswana is really a model for other African nations. I recently saw another video about the country and it is really advanced.
Please do more videos about exceptional African leaders.
Thank you man. Sure, will do more. Your words encourage me.
I like the sound of your voice and how eloquent You are. Keep it up...please make more videos about our Exceptional leaders
Thank you Alpha! I will do more.
My greatest African Leader is Jomo Kenyatta followed closely by Seretse Khama...I love Nzee Jomo Kenyatta's charisma,For Sir Seretse Khama I love how he grew the Economy so fast
Those generation of African leaders were charismatic indeed! Maybe we will do a video on Jomo Kenyatta in the future.
Well-done man for this gift to us.
I've leaned towards Mandela all the while.
Fortunately, there's a lot similarities in their story.
Its good to learn of this name which you rarely meet even at random mentions.
What an inspiring video about Seretse Khama. Seretse Khama's legacy will continue to inspire us all to strive for positive change and to stand up for what is right. Thank you for sharing this powerful video.
Inspiring,Khamaa true nationalist
He was just one of our great African leaders but obviously never the greatest. He is amongst the likes of Kwame Nkrumah, Samora Machel, Nelson Mandela, Robert Mugabe, Sam Nuujoma, Agostinho Neto, Patricia Lumumba, Oliver Tambo, Jomo Kenyata, etc. 😇😇😇
This is mind blowing 😱i mean look at how they grow out of the shadows
Yeah. They've done well for themselves.
Mirena was ba rena. Indeed one of the greatest leaders in Africa. A wise and a smooth peaceful operator who worked for humanity he led
Amazing video, thanks :)
Wowwwww this is eye opening. Will definitely share this awesome information. Thank you so much 🎉❤❤
Thank you my people. I greatly appreciate you.
Please guys study Politics and become the next Khama. I am so tired of these bad african leaders! We can change Africa if WE Become our own LEADERS
Yes. Yes. You get the message! We need more leaders who are at this level.
He bread in Tswana culture, that's what made him. Not western education.
@@kabzaify i don't talk about western education.
Politics is worldwide, it's not a western thing
Education is important to know how things work
Thank you for this information 🙏🏿
You are so welcome
Goat, hopefully botswanans get someone even better than him too !
I pray so!

What a selfless leader!

Thanks. Now I know something about the greatest leader called Khama. Let other leaders emulate such examples
Great Africa leader.
Africa needs for like late President Kharma.
Every African country does!
We can't mention great African leaders and omit Muammar Al-khadafi.
Great leader albeit his shortcomings.
Watch the movie a united kingdom. its about him
Yeah. it is a very fine movie. Enjoyed it.
If there's an African country I am proud of, and if it's only one, it's certainly Botswana. If we had such a leader in DR Congo, we would be the richest country in Africa. Unfortunately, Lumumba was assassinated too early. Mobutu was a Kleptoman who destroyed the country. Those who came after him were even worst. The only thing I don't like is the presence of US base in Botswana.
You are well versed about African history. We have a video in the pipeline on Mobutu. I never knew the US have a base in Botswana. Thank you for sharing that.
The military base of a country into another country is dangerous and very suspicious.They keep spying and one day you never know😮.
Rubbish, they is no American base in Botswana.
@@kabzaify There is american base in Botswana. Julius Malema spoke about that recently.
