Boko warns of looming catastrophe

Addressing striking public servants in Kanye on Friday, Boko said that the recent reports of a Botswana Defence Force (BDF) horse painted "16 percent" at Glen Valley barracks demonstrated the extent of discontent among government employees.

"I can tell you the soldiers and the police are also unhappy, they are fully behind this strike. I do not want to imagine what would happen if they were to take industrial action like you did. How the President fails to address even the problems of those with guns at their disposal amazes me," Boko said.
