Masisi: Khama's plan gone wrong

As for the pair, Khama and Masisi theirs was a relationship seemingly made in heaven. They loved and hated organisations and individuals together.  There was even common talk that the duo’s striking similarities did not provide variety in leadership at the Office of the President (OP) as they seemed to agree on many things.

It was generally feared that in Masisi, Khama had replicated himself to the extent that some political commentators felt that the ascendance of Masisi as state President on April 1 this year was simply akin to Khama ruling from the grave.
