The humble Justice Leburu

Leburu is one of four judges recently appointed by President Ian Khama on the recommendation of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC). The four are DrKholisani Solo, the University of Botswana's head of law department, his UB colleague and law lecturer, Dr. Ookeditse Tshosa, Assistant Attorney General, Tshepo Motswagole and Leburu who is currently the Botswana Development Corporation legal services manager. Tshosa and Motswagole have been appointed on a substantive basis while Dr. Solo and Leburu's appointments are acting.

Leburu's peers describe him as one the finest legal brains this country has ever had. Herbert Letsebe is a lecturer at the Institute of Health Sciences (HIS) in Gaborone. He literally runs short of words to describe the man he grew up with in both their home village of Palapye and Gaborone where their parents both worked and lived.
