Boko speaks on BMD, Sweden, and 2019 :: Mmegi Online

A lot has happened since the last Parliamentary sitting in which Leader of Opposition Duma likened President Ian Khama to a person possessed by demons and who derives joy from the suffering of his own people. Staff Writer BAME PIET caught up with Boko in an interview that involved a wide range of issues

Mmegi: The Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) recently petitioned the Swedish Embassy in Botswana over the sale of Gripen fighter jets to Botswana Defence Force. Tell us more about this petition, whether the procurement was in any of the National Development Plans(NDP) 9, 10 or 11?

Boko: No it was not in any NDP. We have not yet gotten response from Swedish Embassy but we have received a lot of coverage from the Swedish media. I have done two interviews so far with the newspapers that have a huge circulation and the correct set of facts is beginning to filter into the Swedish society.
