Is President Khama scared of Reginald Richardson?

After a series of attempts to coax President Khama for an interview without success, he has now issued a challenge which Khama cannot duck without creating a public scandal, by ‘bragging’ that Khama is scared of him. When I was a small boy herding cattle at the cattle post, the quickest strategy to determine the pecking order of the young lads was to float a taunt to the effect that one cattle-herd youngster had intimated that he wasn’t scared of another: ‘Monna Kitso, you know Ditodi says he is not scared of you? He says you are in fact scared of him!’ That would be the battle cry that initiated a match.
