Serema explains his BDP roots

Serema was born and raised in Tonota by a teacher and a family that was dependent on livestock and arable farming. He was born in a Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) family, the party that has since catapulted him to being a High Commissioner.

“I did my primary and secondary education in Tonota where my interest in politics and community development bear their foundations. I grew up in the 60s when the euphoria of independence abound and my parents, like many in Tonota were part of this exciting time and participated by electing the BDP to become the first government of the newly established republic of Botswana. I was in my later years to follow in their footsteps when I came to study in the University of Botswana in the 80s,” he said.
