Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>A recipient of 200 broiler chicks from Irvine\u2019s Botswana has thanked President Dr Mokgweetsi Masisi for the gift, saying the gesture would definitely improve her life.<\/b><\/p>\n

When receiving the one-day-old chicks in Molepolole on Friday, Ms Amogelang Seemane said, \u201cThe President has just made me rich.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ms Seemane is one of the 10 recipients of the chicks from Irvine\u2019s Botswana, a company that had initially presented the gift to the President, who in turn passed them to Batswana to help improve their lives<\/p>\n

She said she started her business with only 100 chicks, but was thankful the donation would give her an additional boost.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease help us, chicken feed is expensive and therefore it is important that you help us by buying from us,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ms Seemane further thanked the Kweneng District Agricultural office for their continued support, saying she had always relied upon them for assistance ever since she started the business.<\/p>\n

Kweneng District Agricultural technical officer, Mr Lepodise Telekelo said Ms Seemane was selected as she had been dedicated in her business, adding that it was her sole income revenue generator.<\/p>\n

He said unlike other chicken businesses, the GaRanta ward resident had been consistent in her business as she never took a break after selling her produce.<\/p>\n

Mr Andre Hoffman from Irvine\u2019s Botswana said they donated the chicks and two bags of starter feed as per the President\u2019s request.<\/p>\n

He said this was their commitment to ensuring the country was food sufficient, adding that his company started as a backyard business in Harare in the 1950s.<\/p>\n

Today it has expanded to several countries with their produce selling in the Sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n

Mr Hoffman said in addition to the donation, they would also offer continuous technical support.<\/p>\n
