How fascinating it is once in a while to look back on one’s life and recall all those standout moments and sore gaps that punctuate one’s trod from the cradle to the grave! As a young man back in 1993/4 or thereabouts, I received a call from...
Tla ke lo tlotlele. There was this other gent who one evening went out to a bar, where he bumped into a young lady he had been eyeing for a while. He offered to buy her drinks. In between sips of the golden waters, he developed Dutch confidence...
Loving your body is something that’s definitely easier said than done, but full approval is something that every person truly values. There has always been a big push in the media for more models who aren’t stick thin and more body...
I wish to commend and defend BOFEPUSU for taking the bold step not to endorse any of our political parties going into this year’s elections. In fact, I read a lot in the union’s new stance not to endorse any party for this year’s general...
While everybody else is settling, getting married and getting laid, a sizable number of our lady friends remain alone because they seem to have standards which our men are not meeting. These women remain lonely and promise to stay put until somebody...
Sometime ago I was walking to the bus stop near my place and as I walked past the quiet suburb, I increased my pace just in case some thief was lurking nearby. Then suddenly some man emerged from behind me. I have no idea where he came from...
In my journey with HIV, I found that the first step of self-acceptance was the hardest. I have seen how much embracing my HIV-positive status opened the door to a life that I didn’t know was possible. Like many, I first reacted to my diagnosis...
The countdown to our general election has begun. The mood is getting ultra feverish for both candidates and the electorate. Very soon the kitchen will be too hot to countenance. Let’s just hope all the men and women that took the vow of...
Being a Christian is not always easy. But again, I don’t think it was meant to be. It takes grace to soldier on in this journey. The flesh is always at war with the spirit. In Apostle Paul’s words, there is always a thorn in the flesh (2...
My good friend Biggie Butale has upped the ante in the hazy maze of traditional leadership and politics. I hear that he is now addressing the Patron of his party – Botswana Patriotic Front – Lt. Gen. Dr. Ian Khama Seretse Khama, as “His...
I studied European history in secondary school and Hitler was my favourite subject. I especially enjoyed learning about the Policy of Appeasement. I recall that one of the textbooks we used had a cartoon that depicted Stalin and Hitler seemingly...
This weekend we met after a long time at the legendary Motswere tree. Nothing serious was to be discussed. We had our usual traditionally brewed beer to share. The elderly were there to share stories of the yesteryears. The discussion centred...
When Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became angry and was greatly incensed. He ridiculed the Jews, and in the presence of his associates and the army of Samaria, he said, “What are those feeble Jews doing? Will they restore...
In this installment, we attempt answering the difficult question: Did your partner really cheat on you? For known reasons, cheating impedes sexual enjoyment within a legit relationship because it betrays trust, promotes health risks and validates the...
Dear Pastor Biggie I hope this brief finds you in a relatively stable state of mind my dear pastor. Having been one of the few people in politics whom I have had the bravery to defend as a genuinely caring and honest man, I must admit that over...
BY K.A. BAREKI In last week’s installment, I wrote about how to move from sexual mediocrity to excellence by creating the right environment for sex. I intimated that one needs music, clothes, bedding, lube and specific foods known as...
Minister of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Culture Development, Tshekedi Khama said government’s bureaucracy hinders youth participation in economic development. Speaking during the Youth Awards on Saturday, Khama explained that the society has...
How have we as a people treated succession? Though in our society succession has always been determined along patriarchal lineage, traditional leadership succession has not always been smooth. There are known stories where families broke up in a...
No one escapes pain. Pain is universal. Very often in life, we can go through a storm, a devastation, a loss, and feel like we are all alone, like God, the world, and the universe is against us and no one knows how we feel. However, every faith...
My dear reader, what do you think of a woman proposing a man? A bit odd or progressive, maybe? This week I was going through my dose of social media happenings, and while I was still gaping over the Serowe debacle, I came across “news” that Zodwa...
