How Khama weakened DCEC

On the other hand, without providing supporting statistics, the DCEC has acknowledged that for the past decade during President Ian Khama’s tenure, corruption has been on the rise.

University of Botswana (UB) political scientist Dr Kebapetse Lotshwao is steadfast that the transfer of the DCEC to the OP during Khama’s tenure has spelt doom for the corruption-busting agency, as it never emerged above waters. The move, he said, was self-serving on the part of the ruling elite.
