The Patriot on Sunday
Who will be on the Court of Appeal bench to hear & determine IEC appeal against UDC? *ADAM PHETLHE It is generally agreed that the case between Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) and the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) is that of exceptional public importance. As a consequence, the case has so far generated a lot of public interest in terms of looking at all its optics. I predict exceptional public interest will continue way beyond the conclusion of the case. So who amongst the present Justices of Appeal will make the cut? It is difficult to say with a measure of certainty who will make the cut but to predict. Depending on the number of Justices required for this expedited appeal, I predict the following to make the cut. Justices Tebogo Tau, Isaac Lesetedi, Mercy Garekwe, Lackvinder Singh & Leatile Dambe. Former South Africa Constititional Court Justice Bess Nkabinde could also make the cut. All the above local Justices have sat on the bench in high profile cases notably last year's DIS appeal with respect to the search warrant for State House 4, the 'contested' official residence of former President Khama. In this case where there were 5 Justices, Justices Tau, Lesetedi & Singh ruled against the DIS while Justices Garekwe & Dambe dissented. It is my belief that Justices decide matters based on what evidence/facts are before them. That some ruled this or the other way in previous cases is, for lack of a better word, inconsequential. The Chief Justice has sat on some appeal cases I have had sight of. I think he will be disqualified in this one because he is party to an application on another leg of the UDC/IEC case. It will be interesting to see if Justice Tau will make the cut owing to a comment she made when delivering judgement on Wednesday with respect to IEC's request to have its appeal expedited. That comment (and I am paraphrasing) had to do with the intrusive nature UDC’s observers would cause if allowed to observe & monitor voter registration exercise. I believe this comment has already rendered her conflicted to sit in the upcoming appeal proceedings. Time will tell as to who will be on the bench when the appeal proceedings begin on Monday 11 December 2023. Or, will it be new faces? ... See MoreSee Less

. Selebo preaches unity and love, promotes Botswana

VICTORIA MARUMO

editors@thepatriot.co.bw

Gaone Selebo’ s latest single titled ‘Botswana Lefatshe La Rona’ released June 2021 is a hit among fans as it speaks to the patriotism of the country and its people.  Singer, Vocalist and Actress ruth Moore well known for her role as the first lady judge for My Star Botswana then Pop Star Botswana and popular Orange Botswana Ditebogo Points advert is a big fan of Selebo’s new song.

 “Pina ena e a re tlotlomatsa re le Batswana as it describes us as a nation e e utlwanang, ee ratanang. Furthermore, it tells a story that we were under the British rule and now we are independent,” she described. Moore believes there is more to the song which touches extensively on the history of the country mentioning the Three Dikgosi and the direction into the future thereof. “One can sense the hard work and homework put into the lyrics; it was not written just so it can be played on radio. Selebo is a proud Motswana who is selling her country in a positive way in song,” Moore added.

The founding director for Juice Magazine Davy McQueen has also listened to the song and is pleased by the message and the melody embedded within it. “All I can say about this single is that it shows growth on Gaone’s part. The rhythm is in sync with her vocal abilities and also her song writing has improved a lot,” he mentioned.

Selebo who hails from Shoshong said the song describes Botswana as a land of peace, love and unity.  “By writing this song I realized that Batswana are a very peaceful and loving nation and they respect each other,” she said.  A woman of many talents Selebo  also manages her own promotion company ‘Lady G Promotions which she started in 2019 and presently has 19 artists under her wing. “My experience in the music industry was not smooth but i endured. This prompted me to support and promote other artists who are faced with so many challenges such as financial constraints and lack of market to sell their products among others,” she lamented. Her history with music dates back to her childhood years where she led school choirs and general assembly choruses at the age of 12.

She has since continued to nurture her talent post completing her studies, starting off as a backing vocalist for fellow gospel artists Rachel Taukobong.  “I embraced this role for a long time before I released my first single track called “Re Tla Thaba in 2017 followed by a music video,” she explained. The video was nominated for the Annual Gospel Awards (AGA) in best Gospel video category where she battled the likes of Tshepho Lesole and Gabo Thotobolo.  A star on the rise, in September 2020 Selebo released an album called Hosanna which consists of 6 songs coupled by a video for the album’s hit song ‘Ke A Mo Rata Jesu’ which is doing well in the market.
