The Minister of Transport and Communications, Tshenolo Mabeo has cleared speculations behind the dismissal of Air Botswana General Manager Ben Dahwa and the board, this week.

According to Mabeo they took a decision to part ways with both parties following their failure to come up with a clear turnaround strategy for the ailing national airline. He said that he felt the GM and the board of directors have failed to deliver on their mandate of making Air Botswana sustainable.

The national airline has been limping for some time amid several accusations of poor administration and endless customer complaints. Mabeo said what worried him most was the state of the national airline which he said was not improving, adding that it was difficult for him to implement any strategy under the same leadership. “Since I came on board, I haven’t seen any improvement within Air Botswana, I felt the GM did not deliver what he had vowed to do when he joined the airline,” he said.
