South Africa’s State Security Minister Ayanda Dlodlo will admonish Botswana’s President Mokgweetsi Masisi for hiring ‘right-wing’ AfriForum to represent it in the case.
Minister of State Security Ayanda Dlodlo is to meet Botswana President Mokgweetsi Masisi on Tuesday 30 June to complain about the way Botswana is pursuing President Cyril Ramaphosa’s sister-in-law Bridgette Motsepe for alleged money laundering and financing a coup attempt against Masisi.
“We are particularly unhappy with how they’ve handled the issue. How does a friendly and sisterly state with whom we’ve got historical, strong and cordial ties involve a right-wing lobby group in matters between us?” the South African official added. “The DPP in Botswana has already submitted a request for mutual legal assistance on 25 September 2019 to the Department of International Relations and Cooperation , but this request has since conveniently vanished.
“The fact that Dirco failed to give any feedback to the DPP of Botswana over nine months indicates that the South African government is unwilling to assist our client with their request,” AfriForum said.
