Constitutional review is overdue

When these African countries matured, they decided to write their own constitutions with no input by outsiders, especially their former colonisers. Botswana is one of those countries with old donated Constitutions.

The 1963-1964 Constitutional talks, held in Lobatse were between the then colonial masters, chiefs and representatives of few political parties existing at the time. At the time most Batswana were illiterate, let alone politically developed. The country was very poor.
