2nd December 2025

Own Correspondent

The Botswana Public Employees Union(BOPEU) has warned Government about a disturbing trend of marginalizing the unions during the Public Service Bargaining Council(PSBC) by pursuing a policy of divide and rule.

Unions leaders stressed that demoralized workers cannot summon the strength to overcome sluggish economic growth because of growing job insecurity.

‘AgaMotse celebrates Former Botswana Ambassador Jimmy Molefhe’s Legacy’

Own Correspondent

28th November 2025

In an effort to honour layered narratives and safeguard creative legacies, AgaMotse Centre presented ‘Salvaged Works: The Art of Topo ‘Jimmy’ Molefhe,’ a retrospective exhibition celebrating the life labour and artistic work of Former Botswana Ambassador Topo ‘Jimmy’ Molefhe(1927 – 2010).

The unique exhibition held 15 years after his demise, reflects the quiet legacy of a father figure and extinguished diplomat, who created fascinating art work steadily and privately across decades, leaving behind a body of work that speaks with its own clarity and integrity.

Bots should review Death Penalty – Many innocent people have been executed

Kutlo Motseta

28th November 2025

There has been parliamentary talk about the review of the constitution most notably the issue of the death penalty.

This is a very polarizing and a widely misunderstood topic. People who oppose the death penalty are often misunderstood as being sympathetic to murderers. However legal research, which culminated in the abolition of the death penalty in many countries globally, has shown that the issue is more complex.

Tribute to the Late Rev Dr Cheryl Natalie Dibeela

Sello Motseta

Over a week after we laid her to rest the memories of a compassionate and vivacious young woman, committed to embracing the Gospel in word and deed remain etched in my mind. I first met Reverend Dr Cheryl Natalie Dibeela as a student at Rhodes University in the early 1990’s.
