Moswaane candidacy still hangs in the balance

The former Francistown mayor was launched by the ruling party over the weekend. But yesterday, the Court of Appeal said it will deliver judgement in a case which has a bearing on the BDP candidacy in the constituency at the end of the month.  

The court set the date after hearing arguments in a BDP case appealing a High Court decision, which prevented the party from contesting last year’s by-election in the constituency. Initially, the BDP decided that the winner of the primary for the by-election will be its candidate even for the general elections.
