Moses Segokgo: The Patriot

No Image

For Tlokweng's senior citizen Moses Aaron Segokgo, serving his country has comprised the major part of his adult years.

 Segokgo has worked for the Botswana Police for 38 years and is still serving the government but in a different capacity this time.  Segokgo is currently working as one of the tribal authorities at the Tlokweng kgotla. 

The no-nonsense Segokgo joined the Botswana Police in 1952 and retired in 1990 as an assistant superintendent.  He served the protectorate government for 14 years and independent Botswana for 24 years.  In his Kgotla office, Segokgo is still treasuring a picture of Independence day which shows him lowering the Union Jack (British flag) in Kasane to replace it with the new Botswana flag.  That was in 1966 when he was still a young officer. During his time as a police officer, he has served in every corner of the country.
