Botswana Democratic Party News

BDP President Mokgweetsi Masisi lost to Duma Boko of Umbrella for Change.

He says the party’s failure to contain the high rate of unemployment and other service delivery challenges in its almost six-decade rule led to voters seeking alternatives.Sono says this election showed that the time has passed where liberation movements enjoyed outright majority wins by virtue of their origins.

“People are awake now and they can see what’s happening. Only Zimbabwe and Mozambique managed to retain their positions with Angola not having opposition. Now people are tired of the liberation movements with their empty promises. This is what cost the ANC to lose its majority, and if Zimbabwe doesn’t watch out, it will be next along with Namibia. People of Botswana have showed the SADC region that they are tired.
