What cost recovery?
To be fair to Domkrag, it has been singing this jarring tune of cost recovery for a good while. It is in NDP 8, it is in State of the Nation addresses, and it is in budget speeches. Batswana will be forgiven if they do not remember it in specific terms. How much cost and precisely how to be recovered?An examination of opposition unity
The year was 2002. Supporters of the National Rainbow Coalition party packed the Uhuru Park to witness the inauguration of Mwai Kibaki as President of Kenya. In his swearing in speech, he did not disappoint, in as much as pundits praised BNF’s Otsweletse Moupo in his maiden speech to parliament. Kibaki remarked: “some prophets of doom have predicted a vicious in-fighting in NARC (National Rainbow Coalition) following this victory. I want to assure that they will be disappointed. Our strength will grow stronger and coalesce into a single party that ‘will become a hope not only to Kenyans but also to the rest of Africa”.
