We Want More Nigerians In Our Country – Botswana High Commissioner by Evidenx(op): 5:06pm On Aug 18, 2024

High Commissioner of Botswana to Nigeria, Philda Nani Kereng, has advised Nigerians to move into the country.

Philda Nani Kereng said the relationship between Nigeria and Botswana has not been substantial, and she is committed to seeing a relationship built on infrastructure collaboration, business and tourism.

Mrs. Kereng said Nigeria and Botswana have so many opportunities to share. She added that sufficient collaboration between the two countries would help harness the opportunities.

Speaking in an interview with Arise TV, the Botswana High Commissioner said the current relationship between the two countries was insufficient.

“I don’t know what would be the indicators of a strong relationship in this case, but I must comfortably say we have had a bilateral relationship from a long time back. I remember that the embassies of Nigeria and Botswana have been there for quite a long time.

“But I think we have mostly over the years focused on just the normal kind of relationships where we collaborate on visa. We have not had strong program-related and transformational ever-increasing opportunities.

“And that’s why I am going to focus on expanding the relationship, having more of projects going underground. We want to see more movement of Nigerians going to Botswana to appreciate, whether tourism, is business and so forth.

“So I must say that we are just seeing from the many years of collaboration that was just minimal and subtle in many ways. We want now to build a relationship where both countries can actually enjoy each other more, more opportunities.

“We have come up with strategic areas of collaboration where we believe that the relationship will be much more beneficial and valuable in a long time,” Mrs Kereng said.

There's no problem with that... the thing is, after we help build your economy, xenophobia, envy, hatred, etc. come in! We've seen it in the countries we've help build.

Madam commissioner thank you for the open unambiguous invitation,we have received it and will reciprocate.
To give flesh to bone,
1 let Botswana relax its visa policies.
2.Let there be national orientation of Botswanas not to show Xenophobic tendencies in thoughts,words, actions or insinuations against foreigners.
3.Respect for human person's dignity,hardwork honesty and love for African continent.
South Africa is gradually loosing it's place because of ignorance and pride. Who knows, God is raising smaller African countries to replace her and Botswana can be one of such countries.
