AP PRESIDENT: Gaolathe
Botswana is said to be in a state of do or die, with its economy on a sick bed and almost half of the people being ravaged by or about to sink into poverty despite the many international accolades the country enjoys.
This was said by the President of Alliance for Progressives, Ndaba Gabaolathe when delivering his Annual Policy Address last week.
Gaolathe said that young people have lost the desire to dream about what they could become. “We are a nation divided between an elite that enjoys our national treasures, our minerals, our land and first world health, education and life facilities- and the rest of the households with a median income of less than P2200, that lives in overcrowded conditions, that endures poor health facilities and receives a poor education.”
