Khama addresses nation

At the same time, I derive much strength from this show of confidence, and as a result, I take the responsibilities which come with the office with renewed optimism and resolve as I put emphasis on Delivery.

I wish to congratulate all Members of Parliament and Councillors across party lines for their success.  Whilst one party may have faired better than others, the overall outcome is more important, as it reflects the will of the people.  We are united in our knowledge that our collective aspirations and destiny as a people are far greater than the individual differences we have at party political level.  Team work and collaboration will be crucial if we are to deliver to the expectations of Batswana.
