Independence of Justice

Botswana is considered as one of the most stable democracies in Africa and the judiciary is relatively independent. Nevertheless, the country has been under a single-party rule since its independence. Botswana's judicial independence score, according to the World Bank (World Economic Forum Index), has been on the decline over the last few years and stands now at 4.21, which is lower than Namibia and South Africa but higher than Mozambique and Zimbabwe. World Justice Project ranks Botswana 45th out of 113 countries in its latest Rule of Law ranking.
