BCPYL wants one UDC VP position

The BCPYL president, Chillyboy Rakgare said the BCP has not yet agreed on their president Dumelang Saleshando’s name to be in the executive post of the UDC. “We accept the decision by the UDC to have two vice presidents but as the youth league we thought it could be one. The BCP leadership will have to sit down and discuss the name of the person who is suitable for that position,” Rakgare said.

This came after UDC last month announced that their national executive committee (NEC) will be headed by the president who will have two vice presidents and the presidency has been given to the Botswana National Front (BNF) while the Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD) and BCP shall occupy the two vice presidency positions. The Botswana People’s Party (BPP) had been given chairpersonship.
