Boko encourages judges to speak truth to power

Speaking at the opening of the Southern and Eastern Africa Chief Justices’ Forum in Gaborone on Wednesday, the President said the judiciary must not only be free from interference, but also firm in defending the rule of law, no matter the pressure.

The four-day forum, hosted by the Administration of Justice (AoJ), brought together judges, lawyers, legal scholars, and court administrators from across the region to share experiences and strengthen justice systems.
