Government for everything!

If there is anything I would rather not be is the government. "Batho ga ba iteke mme ba leba wena fela mo matlhoking a bone otlhe. A re itekeng bathong, kgantele le ene goromente o tla tsamaya a sa apara because we are more than too demanding".

Botswana is a sick country where people call upon the government for everything. Truly, this is illness. Every individual that seeks to hold government responsible for everything is an irresponsible citizen. Of course I do not dispute the fact that the government is the father of the nation. But surely we ought to help our father for our father to help us. Its just like hands, the right hand washes the left hand and vice versa. The government alone can not fulfill our desires. When the government gives people food they still complain that they were not given spoons to eat the food. What is that?

Batswana are too dependant on the government and this is slowly taking away my first-rate humor. Either you watch television, read news papers or listen to the radio, people cry high like cocks about the government. Come on let us take an initiative to better our lives. The government has to help us, that one we know but let us help our selves too. You have what it takes to help yourself so do not undermine yourself. Transform your mess into a message.
