Kokorwe served to her best abilities

Speaking at a memorial service at Tapologo farm in Ramaphatle on Tuesday, Dr Venson-Moitoi said she met Kokorwe at the then Ministry of Local Government where she was working as an Establishment Officer. Dr Venson-Moitoi said based on her abilities, Kokorwe was trusted to lead the establishment of Sowa Town, where she did wonders. She added that God has a way of giving people gifts no matter how insignificant they may be, they would bring great change to the lives of people.

Dr Venson-Moitoi said her life ought to teach people about what matters most in life and take the baton to continue her legacy. A representative of the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP), former councillor Major Driver Motlokwa said following his retirement from Botswana Defence Force in 2001, Kokorwe roped him into the team that was tasked with driving the BDP mandate. Mr Motlokwa said Kokorwe served for three terms as the Member of Parliament for Kweneng South from 1994, a time in which she worked with determination and commitment.

He said Kokorwe worked tirelessly, adding that former President Lt Gen. Dr Seretse Khama President Khama loved her because she was time conscious and always delivered on her assignments. Mr Motlokwa said Kokorwe was a people centered person who embraced all and never belittled anyone.
