Thank you, @TIME Magazine, for naming me among the 100 Most Influential People of 2025. I accept this honour on behalf of the people of Botswana.

While my name may be highlighted, it is the people of Botswana who are truly influential. They inspire me every day with their strength, resilience, and vision.

A nation small in number, yet rich in spirit and potential. I am because they’re extraordinary.

Re a leboga! Thank you!
