'Khama has not fled the country'

We are also observing commentary that seems to be deliberately untrue and causing undue public alarm. The notion that he has fled the country or has gone into exile is simply not true. It is also not true as alleged by some that he at any point confirmed fleeing Botswana never to return. The former President is on a pre-arranged private visit to RSA visiting friends and family and having a series of meetings connected to his private visit. When Gen. Khama has completed his engagements in South Africa or anywhere else where these may take place he will return home.
