Celebrating Independence Day

While the majority will have travelled home to be with their families, some will be visiting friends and as for others, they will remain in Gaborone. Boipuso (Independence Day) celebrations signify different things to Batswana, some think it has changed over the years while some think it is still the same. This is what people have to say about the Independence holidays and the way they see them.
