Letshego leads BSE despite internal turbulence

By last Friday, Letshego’s share price was up 25% for the year, outpacing its peers on the Domestic Companies Index, according to Stockbrokers Botswana data.

Second-placed gainer, Standard Chartered Bank Botswana was up 14.8% by comparison, followed by 7.8% for Letlole la Rona. Letshego’s performance is despite the shock sacking of its chief executive officer, Andrew Okai earlier this month, with the board releasing a terse statement hinting at the irreparable breakdown of the relationship.
