SA Made Africa Proud :: Mmegi Online

The FIFA 2010 World Cup has come to a close. The hard work that the South African government, South African Football Association and Local Organising Committee has put over the years in organising this football spectacle has no doubt proved critics wrong.

A lot of sceptics have been critical of South Africa in building capacity to host a massive event like the world cup. By all standards the 2010 World Cup will for a long time remain South Africa's success story.

It takes dedication, passion, commitment and political courage to successfully stage an event of this magnitude. The Botswana National Front (BNF) would like to thank our South African brothers for making Africa proud. It remains our hope that other African governments including the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) government will learn from South Africa and realise that political leadership is a prerequisite for the success of every national project.
