  • EPV0575 Poniso at Chief's Camp

Poniso Nesta Shamukuni
Box 913 Kasane
Botswana
(Mobile No. 716 424 61)

Poniso was our ranger from Maun through Chobe.  He did everything and seemed to know everything.  We could not have asked for a more personable, accommodating, interesting, considerate and professional ranger.  Poniso possesses extraordinary interpersonal skills.  His very presence and demeanor commands the respect of those who work with him and of his clients.  We always felt safe, informed and comfortable with Poniso at the helm.  He drove, answered questions, taught, piloted a river craft and made sure his client guests had every comfort possible.  If Botswana needs an ambassador to the U.S., Poniso should be on the short list.  A great guy.  A mensch.
