Botswana President Wants To Scrap Passport Requirement For Zimbabwean Travellers | Report
2 years agoMon, 13 Mar 2023 06:54:49 GMT
Botswana President Mokgweetsi Masisi is reportedly mulling a proposal to allow Batswana and Zimbabweans to use national identity cards (IDs) for travel between the two countries.
Currently, citizens from both countries require valid passports to cross the border.
NewZimbabwe.com cited The Parrot newspaper as saying Masisi revealed that he will make the proposal over the use of ID cards for cross-border travel when he meets his Zimbabwe counterpart, President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Part of the reads:
President Mokgweetsi Masisi has just revealed that in a few months’ time, he will be meeting his Zimbabwean counterpart Emmerson Mnangagwa on a visit where he will make sure they discuss the use of identity cards for border crossing between the two countries.
Arguably, the majority of Zimbabweans who migrate to Botswana will be seeking better economic prospects while Batswana citizens mostly cross into Zimbabwe to seek tertiary education.
In February this year, Masisi and Namibian President, Hage Geingob signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to permit citizens of the two countries to use IDs to cross borders.

Batswana are very clever, its easier to catch someone with an id than with a passport. an id is for life and can not be changed at any time. a passport can be changed and hence makes tracking down criminals hard for foreign governments whilst with an id a database can be maintained and erased only at death. saka musazvifurire just a single crime your details will be all over Botswana

Guys Botswana knows kuti Chamisa anenge apinda very soon so varikugara vavaka ukama neZim .Zim is rich but irikutongwa nembavha chete dzisina macitizens mumoyo.

re you saying Chamisa will preside over EDs policy agreements with Botswana on migration using IDs. Zvimwe pfungwa zvosemesa varume kkk. Migration using IDs hayivake hukama internationally but good eco-political and social policies do rather. Chamisa is bigger than IDs and a thousand EDs. Remember Ian Khama handsomely financed Chamisa in 2018. Botswana is simply taking advantage of cheap skilled labour supply just like UK and EU countries. The labour is almost free. Who wouldn't want that anyway. BeBvumbururu just know its co-option. I know of many professionals who have been co-opted via marriage in many countries.

Prices are good in Botswana tichawanda ha vachaenda ikoko for shopping, tichizodzoka tichitengesa kumusha.
But after maElection when CCC wins we will focus on other things cos nyika inenge yakugadziriswa.
Botswana knows kuti zimboz are hardworking and we buy a lot products from their country kuti tingese kuno.
