"The question touches on individual rights, private personal matters which could lead to litigation', explained Tibone.He was responding to a question by Lobatse MP Nehemiah Modubule who wanted to know how many millionaires live in Botswana, what their nationalities are, as well as the value of property owned by each of them.
