Seretse Khama : Life and Legacy of Africa's Best President EVER!!
THE HISTORY OF modern Botswana is very much intertwined with the history of Sir Seretse Khama. Overcoming political resistance to his interracial marriage, Seretse became the country's first post-colonial leader and served from 1966 to his death in 1980. During his tenure, he oversaw Botswana's rapid economic development.
Without the caution, guidance and political acumen of Seretse, it is highly unlikely that Botswana would have escaped from abject poverty or the long-standing desire of the South African authorities for detailed control of the political future of that country.
Sir Seretse Khama has been internationally acknowledged as an outstanding statesman and one of the great successes of twentieth-century African politics.
In this episode of African Biographics, we cover the life and legacy of Sir Seretse Khama, the first president of Botswana.
