Diplomat describes African poverty
Rain cancels doubleheader
The ambassador to the United States
from Botswanda Thursday talked with
students organizing the Lincoln Walk for
Development.
Some of the money to be raised by the
Walk is slated to go to projects in
Botswanda. During the short discussion the
ambassador, Linchwe Kgafela, told about his
'

country, a nation in south central Africa..
The country is quite dry with an average
rainfall of only 13 inches a year, he said
There is only one full scale irrigation project
in the country and it was built while
Botswanda was still a colony.
Only about one per cent of farmers in
Botswanda farm with machines, the
ambassador said. The annual income per
person in the country is $96.
Kgafela said the other major problem of
his country is education. There are simply
not enough schools, he added. -
Botswanda is about the size of Texas with
a population of 660,000. Education in remote
areas is very hard to get, he said.
But there is a program underway where'
the villages build school rooms and the
government tries to find money to equip
them, he said. The program is working well,
he added.
The ambassador said that Botswanda is in
need of irrigation projects and water
conservation plans. Money from the Walk
for Development is aimed at these projects.
Kgafela will end his trip to Nebraska at a
Saturday night dinner in Creighton
University's Becker Hall in Omaha. The 6:30
dinner is open to the public and costs five
dollars. Proceeds from the dinner will go to
the Botswanda school program.
