He may look a green horn in terms of age. But at the youthful age of 28, Kago Mokotedi is relishing of mission impossibilities as he is fast turning into a dependable resource. The young lawyer has now been re-assigned by his employer, Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) to head the legal division.

Mokotedi, who graduated from the University of Botswana (UB) with a Bachelor of Laws Degree (LLB), was immediately awarded a prestigious scholarship from the European Union to do his Masters in Laws (LLM) at the University of Pretoria. He also had a short stint at Makerere University in Uganda where his Master’s thesis was supervised.

During his student days at the UB, Mokotedi was elected president of the student representative council. He was a controversial and radical student leader who fought many battles with then Vice Chancellor Professor, Thabo Fako.
