BONEPWA to stage Mr 2008 HIV Positive Living pageant

BONEPWA programme officer Rosemary Mokgosi said their objective is to encourage men's participation in HIV/AIDS issues.

Police commissioner Thebeyame Tsimako will be the guest speaker at the event. Tsimako is the current chairperson of Men's Sector. Mokgosi, however, pointed out the pageant is not necessarily for HIV positive people only. She said that one of the major considerations is that prospective contestants should be people who know their status and are conversant with HIV/AIDS issues.
