Boko slams gov�t on human/wildlife conflict

He said Section 4 of the Constitution spells out that every human being has a right to life and livelihood. He said the Constitution further gives humans the power to defend their lives and property when it is threatened and take the life of the assailant.  “The Constitution here is talking about a threat by another person.

You can imagine what it would say when that threat is coming from an animal,” Boko said. The Member of Parliament (MP) for Gaborone Bonnington North slammed government for the way it deals with instances whereby lives of humans is threatened by animals saying it is wrong, unlawful and unconstitutional.
