Meet - Lesego Chombo, newly appointed Minister of Youth and Gender Affairs of the Republic of Botswana.
She is a remarkable 26-year-old Admitted Attorney of the High Court of Botswana, Member of Parliament, Miss World Africa 2024, and former Miss Botswana 2022.
She holds a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from the University of Botswana.

Her journey from beauty queen to lawmaker is a powerful reminder of the impact young leaders can have when they’re empowered to serve.
Her commitment to justice, combined with her passion for education and empowerment, has made her a true role model for Botswana and beyond.
"As of today, I am blessed with a role that gives me a greater opportunity to serve young people, and be part of the movement striving towards a new and better Botswana. I am grateful to be the incumbent minister of youth and gender affairs. All I have ever longed for was to make people’s lives better in all that I do," said Hon. Lesego Chombo.
