Botswana’s President Duma Boko is in Mozambique on a working visit aimed at strengthening bilateral ties and addressing pressing regional and global issues.
Book, who arrived late Thursday, met Mozambican President Daniel Chapo in the city of Nacala, Nampula province on Friday.
According to a statement from Chapo’s office, the two leaders discussed a range of topics, including domestic challenges, regional stability and global affairs.
“The Tswana President’s visit to Mozambique aims to strengthen and deepen the historic ties of brotherhood, friendship, solidarity and political, economic, social and cultural cooperation, to exchange views on the internal situation between the two countries, in Southern Africa, on the African continent and in the world in general, to deepen mutual and interpersonal knowledge between the two Heads of State and to review the current stage of bilateral cooperation,” the statement said.
The visit also included a tour of the port of Nacala and the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Humanitarian and Emergency Operations Centre where the presidents assessed the facilities and their operations.
Both Chapo and Boko represent a wave of young leadership in southern Africa, bringing fresh perspectives to governance and regional cooperation.
Their meeting comes at a time when the region faces economic and security challenges, requiring coordinated efforts among member states.
The visit is expected to solidify ties between Botswana and Mozambique while contributing to broader regional integration and development initiatives.
