Minister Majoro Says He is Ready for Lesotho's Highest Office

Finance Minister Moeketsi Majoro, who was unanimously chosen by the All Basotho Convention legislators to succeed Prime Minister Thomas Thabane, says he is ready to take over when the veteran leader eventually retires. Thabane agreed to step down after evidence allegedly linked him to the murder of his estranged wife, Lipolelo Thabane.
