Former Botswana Prez Festus Mogae Praises Rawlings

Mr. Mogae said he was convinced that the forthcoming Presidential and Parliamentary elections in Ghana would be peaceful, stating that he had no sense of ‘trepidation’ about the conduct of the process.

“We must agree to disagree in peace,” he stated in a meeting with President Rawlings at his Ridge office on Monday.

The former Botswana leader commended President Rawlings for helping to institute the Fourth Republican constitution, submitting to it twice and handing over after his mandate had expired.

President Mogae who was leader of Botswana from 1998 to 2008 is in Ghana to deliver a lecture on Credible Elections and Governance in Africa under the auspices of the Center for Democratic Development (CDD) on Tuesday, October 9.
