Dear Daughter And Sisters Please Report

DORCAS MAKGATO WRITES

Dumelang ba ga rena,

I am currently outside Botswana and I am deeply disturbed by the reports of SEXUAL VIOLENCE coming from my beloved Botswana.

As a mother and a leader, I cannot bear the thought of a girl child or any woman suffering sexual assault at the hands of any man. I am especially pained by the fact that many women and girls suffer in SILENCE. Investigations must always be thorough and justice should always be delivered.

Dear daughters and sisters, please report such cases and let us put an end to this. I wish to offer my personal assistance to ensuring that the current reports are thoroughly investigated. To this end, any victims who have not found assistance from authorities/police can contact me via my inbox.

It is very plausible that Batswana are speaking in one voice - the need for a sexual offenders registry is becoming more and more apparent with each passing day. To the men and boys, learn to exercise self control. Let’s stay united and end sexual violence altogether.

#SpeakOut
