Sharing his thoughts on the National Petroleum Fund (NPF) saga and Masisi’s corruption crusade exclusively with Mmegi Boko wrote that, “I deal here, en passant, with the fact that in the course of the criminal case it was alleged that President Masisi benefitted from several sources in his campaign to become the chairperson of his party”.
Boko who also doubles as Botswana National Front (BNF) president said it appears Masisi received several million pula through a number of operatives, many of whom are ready and willing to testify, should a serious investigation occur. “He funded his ‘Camp Dubai’ mainly from NPF money. It has also been suggested that President Masisi used at least three law firms to receive and disburse these funds. President Masisi becomes, without any doubt, a criminal suspect,” Boko said. He said while on the subject of receipt of funds for ‘Camp Dubai’ Masisi is alleged to also have received funds from Botswana Public Officers Pension Fund (BPOPF) monies through the medium of Capital Management Botswana (CMB), which was entrusted with P450 million by BPOPF. “It is important here to highlight that CMB is owned 75% by Capital Management Africa (CMA) and one Rapula Okaile holds 25% of the shares of CMB. The network also covers Fleming Asset Management (Fleming) in which CMA holds 75% shares while 25% was held by a known political figure.”
