BDF disassociates itself from malicious letter

The Botswana Defence Force (BDF) wishes to disassociate and distance itself from a letter which appeared in The Monitor newspaper on Monday 27, March 2017 and other print media outlets with the heading, “Tshekedi Khama Sounds and Looks Like a Militia”.

As a matter of fact, the BDF would like to make it known that the author using the alias Lieutenant Godfrey Letsholo, is in no way affiliated to the BDF. Therefore, any reference to what he writes must never be construed to represent the BDF in any capacity. The author is representing his own views outside the BDF.

For the record, it is not in the space or interest of the BDF to comment or engage in political rhetoric. Batswana from all walks of life are at liberty to comment on anything that is related to this country to include the BDF.
