Masisi jets in again
Just a little over 25 days after visiting Namibia for a one-day working visit, Botswana president Mokgweetsi Masisi is once again expected to arrive in Windhoek this morning.
During the 29 January visit, Masisi, who was hosted by President Hage Geingob, deliberated on the joint investigation into the fatal shooting of three Namibian brothers and their Zambian cousin by the Botswana Defence Force (BDF) in November last year along the Chobe River.
Press secretary Alfredo Hengari said Masisi’s visit will include discussions with Geingob around issues of water infrastructure and sustainable development after the two leaders took the decision to elevate the Joint Permanent Commission of Cooperation to a Bi-National Commission.
