Ha Di Lwa Di Gata Marole

Last week, Lobatse High Court judge Godfrey Nthomiwa pleaded with a warring couple to cooperate and provide a conducive environment for their three minor children. The couple is undergoing divorce and are in disagreement over child custody.

A man (names withheld) had filed an urgent application seeking custody of their three children after their mother refused for him to take them back to school in Swaziland (now known as eSwatini). Advancing his reasons, he said the children came to him in December and his family would not allow them back to Botswana, as they wanted the wife’s family to apologise for having said he abandoned the children in Botswana.
