Sir Ketumile Masire’s Contribution to the Betterment of the African Continent

Abstract

Master of Ceremonies, Your Excellency, Sir Ketumile Masire, Members of the Board of the Sir Ketumile Masire Foundation, Distinguished guests, Ladies and gentlemen: I would like to thank the Board of the Sir Ketumile Masire Foundation for making it possible for me to be here this evening to participate in this important fund-raising dinner. I am certain that none of the distinguished guests present here need any convincing by me, or anybody else for that matter, about the need for all of us to do everything we can to help generate the means to enable the Sir Ketumile Masire Foundation to carry out its important work. I am convinced that all of us as Africans should consider ourselves very fortunate that President Masire and his collaborators took the decision to establish the Masire Foundation.
