    The Tswana (people from Botswana) rarely travel. When I lived there, the government used to have massive drives to get people to apply for passports. It rarely worked. So this is a non-issue and arbitrary or either a badly scripted effort to do work on behalf of some diamond dealer. Nonetheless, the Tswana, more interested in partying than visiting USA will be unbothered. Also, there is a base involved and the EFF (volatile South African political party) have been pushing for it to be removed. This is just giving it impetus.
