Today was an extraordinary day as DTC Botswana welcomed Letsile Tebogo, Botswana’s exceptional 200m gold medalist at the 2024 Olympic Games, and his coach Mr. Kebonyemodisa Dose Mosimanyana, along with representatives of the Botswana National Olympics Committee. The visit was an opportunity for Letsile and the delegation to gain insights into DTC Botswana and its significant contributions to Botswana and the diamond industry. DTC Botswana employees also had the opportunity of engaging with the gold medalist, fostering an inspiring exchange of experiences and ideas.
DTC Botswana recently participated in the 2024 Olympic Athletes Appreciation Ceremony with De Beers Global Sightholder Sales and Debswana Diamond Company, where a total of P1,080,000 was awarded to all the athletes and coaches as a tribute to their outstanding accomplishments at the recent Olympic Games.
Following this empowering visit, Letsile and his coach embarked on their journey from Botswana to compete in the upcoming Lausanne Diamond League in Switzerland, where Letsile will showcase his talent in the 200m men’s race on the 22nd August 2024. DTC Botswana extends its heartfelt best wishes to him for the race and eagerly anticipates witnessing yet another podium finish.
