Masisi's maiden anti-climax speech

His ascension brought about renewed hope for many citizens of this country who have faced life’s struggles such as unemployment, low wages, poverty, crime, HIV and AIDS, alcohol and drug abuse, and other socially related ills. Many if not all, awaited his inauguration speech with bated breath, anxious to know what their incoming President has in store for them that could be different from what his immediate predecessor had given them.

However, when it was time for Masisi to lay bare his road map, many were left wondering whether he will remain in the shadow of former president, Ian Khama.
