Through a statement this morning, on his official Facebook account, the former president who is on self-imposed exile stated that he was shocked to learn of the passing of the former DIS boss. “I woke up yesterday morning to the tragic news that my friend and colleague Isaac Kgosi has passed away,” Khama said. Khama reserved special praise for Kgosi for being a true patron to the nation and for remaining unfazed by the challenges he was engulfed in terms of the law. “Colonel Kgosi who has also now passed away was a true patriot who loved or country and its people and was always motivated to do the best for it,” he said. He added, “He was also a true hero in that recent years, he was subjected to always being tormented, harassed, arrested and detained illegally and having false charges brought against him by the regime,” Khama said. Moreover, Khama stated that even being bombarded with so many charges, Kgosi was never moved by the charges.
“Obviously, he was never convicted in any of these fabricated cases. They failed to break him despite their desperate and stated attempts to try do so,” the former president said. Meanwhile, Khama also took the opportunity to pay tribute to former minister and ambassador, Roy Blackbeard who had passed on three days before Kgosi.
