SA involvement with Botswana election politics caused embarrassment again when two planes of controversial South African businessman, Zunaid Moti, were impounded at Francistown airport. Moti offered them for campaigning by opposition leader Duma Boko

Moti offered his small business jet, a Beechcraft Premier 1, and an Agusta 119 helicopter for campaigning by opposition leader Duma Boko of the Umbrella for Democratic Change .

Moti’s lawyer, Ulrich Roux, confirmed to City Press that his client had made his aircraft available to Boko’s election campaign from last Sunday to May 2. The crew apparently also did not immediately report the aircraft’s arrival to customs, the statement said. Botswana’s political landscape has become increasingly turbulent since the retirement of former President Ian Khama who led the country for 10 years without any significant opposition candidates. The ruling Botswana Democratic Party is itself involved in a bitter struggle for power.
