Today, we proudly launched the first phase of the Bonno Housing Program, a transformative initiative aimed not just at building homes, but at providing access to housing for every Motswana.
With a goal of 100,000 homes by 2029, Bonno is a government-led step towards human rights in action, ensuring that all citizens have access to safe and decent housing.

New Dawn in Selebi Phikwe
Yesterday, we had a meaningful engagement with the residents of Selebi Phikwe. A topic that continues to weigh heavily is the closure of the BCL Mine. Undoubtedly one of the most unfortunate events in our recent history.
As we chart the way forward, the launch of the Commission of Inquiry represents a critical step towards truth, justice, and accountability.
Equally important were the rich ideas you shared on economic diversification. Where feasible, these ideas will be supported to come alive and drive sustainable development. The outstanding academic performance of Phikwe schools serves as a powerful reminder that giving up is not an option.
Though broken, we shall rise. We will rebuild. In three years, transformation must be visible. Together, we must make it happen.

We conclude our visit to Oman with great optimism and renewed commitment.
Our engagements have strengthened the bonds between our two nations, culminating in the signing of key cooperation agreements. We have identified strategic sectors such as mining, energy, and other areas of mutual interest where collaboration will drive sustainable growth, enhance trade, create employment opportunities, and promote technological exchange.
These partnerships will not only bolster our respective economies but also deepen our shared vision for prosperity and development.
Today we are moving to UAE, in pursuit for strategic relations.

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to engage the business community from a wide variety of sectors in a high-level Business Engagement Forum.
During my Fireside Chat with the business community, I implored them to be intentional and proactive in bringing forth contributions to lawmaking.
Politicians and public servants do not know it all.
The invitation was to foster inward collaboration with domestic businesses to drive solutions for national development. Partnering with the trailblazing SOE Botswana Stock Exchange (BSE) supported by Botswana Investment and Trade Centre (BITC), and Business Botswana, discussions focused on economic revitalization and diversification, job creation and business efficiency.
This forum was about more than just economic revitalization, it was about empowering small businesses, which were also in attendance, showcasing remarkable products and demonstrating their potential to drive growth.
Thank you to the business community for heeding the call to engage. Special and hearty thank you to Mogoditshane Senior Secondary School Choir for the melodies and BSE Board Chairperson Ms Neo Mooki on her thoughtful donation to the choir.
Together, we are shaping a resilient and inclusive economy.
