On behalf of Prime Minister Philip Davis, the Foreign Ministry, and the people of The Bahamas, I extend
heart felt condolences to the government and people of The Republic of Botswana on the passing of
former President Festus Mogae.

He was a friend of The Bahamas and proved to be committed to strengthening meaningful ties between
Botswana and our nation. President Mogae made a state visit to The Bahamas in 2000, and Prime
Minister Davis and I were able to meet with him during our official visit to Botswana in 2024.

He led with distinction and served his country with marked dedication. President Festus Mogae will be
long remembered as a humble statesman who contributed much to the deepening of democracy in the
Republic of Botswana.
