Icons of Botswana:a life well lived

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith to get what you want in life, no matter how many hardships and challenges you face.

While others complain and blame their unfortunate upbringing for not succeeding in life, Bill-Ryan Seboni turned his situation around as he used faith and ambition to get what he wanted out of life. His is a typical 'rags to riches' story and from his wife, Basebi Seboni, who we get the full story from, is not shy to share her husband's journey of success. Her face lights up when she talks about her late husband. The interview takes place at their home in Block 9 and we cannot help but notice a framed poster in the living room written 'We all make plans but God has the decision'. This suddenly makes my grandfather's words echo in my memories; he used to say to us that God has a plan for everyone and everything happens for a reason.
