GABORONE, Botswana — Visiting Africa on a goodwill mission, first lady Michelle Obama defended her husband Friday against criticism that he isn’t paying enough attention to the continent. She said her week-long trip to South Africa and Botswana is proof of the president’s commitment to Africa.
“This trip is a reflection, a direct reflection, of his support and his interest and his view of the importance of Africa to the world and to the future of the world,” she said. “That’s why I’m here.”
