Our love for Botswana has to surpass our love for UDC or any party that takes us for granted.

THREAD 🧵 INSURANCE LAW IN BOTSWANA: WHAT EVERY Motswana SHOULD KNOW. 1/ Most people pay insurance premiums every month but have very little understanding of their rights when an insurer refuses to pay. Insurance is not a favour from an insurance company. It is a legal contract. Let’s break down how insurance law works in Botswana. 🇧🇼

Akere airports are usually designed to present as many bits of the city/country as possible, so if your layover allows you to explore, consume and chillnyana then I believe you have indeed visited the country.

Can you count a country amongst the places you’ve visited if you were only there on layover?

Simple answer: @Beyonce has no peak—she’s the yardstick. She’s atp doing music to remind herself that there’s nothing she cannot do. She defines the bounds of her own impact beyond what industry can control, & each of her releases has its own uniquely designed measure of peak. +

We need to have a discussion about this though... so, let's use Beyoncé as an example. What was her peak? Even with that, what makes ou so sure she's now done? Let's stop being ridiculous. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Bey’s career hasn’t ran narrow & linear like most, but rather had dizzying range + towering longevity. Nobody in showbiz has ever had consistent, stellar relevance, ever… if not, perhaps, MJ, from whom she draws her most significant inspiration. She’s the very apex of stardom.

Words where the adjective appears after the noun it modifies are called ‘postpositive adjectives.’ notary public body politic professor emeritus court-martial These words all seem….official. Why? 🧵⬇️

Thinking about things like "notary public," "body politic," phrases where English puts the modifier after the noun like a Romance language. There must be some other examples
