"content": "Botswana is a country with which we should have ratified this Protocol a long time ago because we have many Kenyans working there. When Botswana got its Independence, it imported a lot of skilled labour from Kenya, especially teachers. When I was there last in 2015, I met many Kenyans with their families, who are teachers, head-teachers and principals of schools. They say that they find it cumbersome to come home because there is no direct flight from Botswana to Nairobi, Kenya. This time round, it will be quite easy and convenient. Given that the country has a small population, if Kenyans want to go and live there, it will be easy. It will be easy to get a place to stay. We visited a ranch where we found a lot of cows. The ranch manager and director were Kenyans. We were told that they had come to benchmark at our abattoir in Athi River and they then went and did theirs to be very big and efficient. That is why they got the licence to export beef overseas. Having airlines flying to Botswana via Kenya will pave way for our farmers to go and bench mark there cheaply. More so, we have people who will be employed and it will be cheap for us."
