Khama should advice Jacqueline to stop

Recently there has been a debate over President Ian Khama's retraction of his threat to take the Sunday Standard newspaper to court. In the build up to that incident, newspaper editors were engaged in re-establishing a working relationship with the Office of the President.

Proponents of this strategy were beginning to think that the relationship between the newspaper managers and the office of the President had been ruined. It would be impossible to discuss the merits and demerits of this position here, save that what appeared to the overriding objective,  was the refurbishment of the soured relationship between OP and the newspaper managers. As the newspaper people discussed ways to repair this relationship, reports emerged that the president's sister, Jacqueline was also planning action against the newspaper. We believe that the president withdrew his action on principle, wanting to save himself, the nation and the country's highest office a messy legal wrangle.

We were also looking forward to a settling of the apparent dispute between the country's leaders and The Sunday Standard.We would like to believe that both parties have moved towards a position of mutual understanding.
