Duma Boko and his friend, Rick Yune on his arrival on Friday

Hollywood superstar, Rick Yune, says he came to Botswana to give his friend Duma Boko, the president of the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) moral support in the elections.

Yune is expected to stay in Botswana up until April 23, to assess and support his friend’s campaign. Yune arrived in Gaborone on Friday morning, and then flew with Boko to Maun in the afternoon to attend Tawana Moremi’s Saturday launch.
