Well done Wilderness Safaris!

In my mind, the newspapers had gone on overdrive and wanted to sell. Finally, it was confirmed and I had to accept the reality that it was indeed happening. Our airline had gone to Wilderness Safaris. As I was scratching my head in a fit of anger and dejection, Wilderness Safaris withdrew its expression of interest in the running and takeover of Air Botswana.

I must say as a prelude to this article that I have absolutely no problem with privatisation of Air Botswana. Better still, it would be a day worthy of celebration if the national airline can find its parents at home and not be auctioned to foreigners. It would be a celebratory day if one of our own was to have ownership of the airline and make sure that the money circulates within the economy.
