Lesego Chombo, celebrated attorney, entrepreneur, and reigning Miss World Africa, recently shared her insights at the prestigious Forbes #Under30Africa Summit in Botswana, discussing the transformative potential of talent and partnerships for economic success. “I understood that my talent was a key to my economic success, and nothing successful happens unless you prepare,” Chombo said, underscoring the foundation of preparation in achieving long-term success.

Speaking at the Summit, Chombo addressed two major themes: “Fostering Partnerships Through Investment and Unity” and “Optimizing Talents for Success.” Both talks centered on the value of leveraging talent and resources to create sustainable growth, with implications at personal, national, and continental levels. Her perspectives on unity and partnership struck a chord with attendees, highlighting the importance of shared knowledge and investment in fostering a thriving African economy.

As of today, Chombo also steps into a pivotal role in Botswana’s government, appointed as the Minister of Youth and Gender Affairs by President Duma Gideon Boko.

President Boko welcomed her to the cabinet, stating, “Youth and gender must go beyond conversation to action. We’re proud to announce Ms. Lesego Chombo as our new Minister of Youth and Gender.”

Chombo’s role as Minister signifies an empowered step toward promoting youth and gender equity in Botswana. With a lifelong commitment to positive impact, Chombo’s leadership represents a bold future for the nation’s youth and gender initiatives, driven by action, vision, and unity.
