I am thrilled - pioneer Sebetela

The midwife who delivered Vision 2012 was none other than maverick politician, Boyce Sebetela, who, with his characteristic devil-may-care attitude, is making sure feathers fly in Parliament as representative for Palapye. He was in the company of men like the studious Labbeaus Peloewetse and Thuli Johnson, who were softballers of note in their hey-day with the Vikings. It was a day in 1995 that the Botswana National Sports Council (BNSC) experienced the excruciating pains, which resulted in a child called "Sports Vision 2012" who came out screaming and kicking. Now a cocky and gangly lad of 12, his maturity certainly belies his age.

Sebetela was the chairperson of the sports council while Peloewetse was his deputy. Johnson was a member of the executive committee.
