A sodom moment

"Flee for your lives! Don't look back......" For unstated reasons she looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. What a tragedy! Nostalgia probably prompted her to look back at the city she had lived in and wished to continue living there for the rest of her life. The morale of the story is never to look back on a flopped project once it is certified dead, lest you ossify into some dead form!After almost half-a-century of meandering in failure, corruption and a forest of stunted development, Batswana watching this unpalatable stalemate can no longer contain their disgruntlement with the status quo. Drawbacks, lack of progress and unhindered corruption, have become unacceptable; the heavy yoke of the BDP has become onerous. There is rot in the state of Botswana. The lies, the incessant denials of mistakes committed and piqued by the arrogance of power, many Batswana have become sensitive. Domkrag isn't popular anymore.
