        This Botswana President is the ultimate example of an imperialist ass-leaking African leader; and each time he speaks I am only reminded that the greatest of dangers is offspring of little knowledge. What a shame to his dad, the great Sir Tseretse Khama

        Mr @AndrewMwenda when I was growing up, my peasant father taught me never to speak or act in any manner should I get drunk or lose sobriety. I'd give the same advice to you now that I tested it's usefulness over the years.

        The only one African president who Zimbabweans won’t have a problem with commenting about Zimbabwe right now not the other pack of wolves in SADC and AU. They never wanted freedom for us pity on them all.
