UB don advises UDC to split

This is according to political analyst Leonard Sesa. The University of Botswana (UB) political science lecturer is amongst pundits who have often maintained that the UDC will not stand the test of time owing to very vast ideological differences and the big brother mentality often displayed by the contracting parties.  Sesa’s present remarks came in the wake of a recently heated exchange between Botswana Congress Party (BCP) president Dumelang Saleshando and Sidney Pilane who is the president of the BMD in a UDC National Executive Committee (NEC) WhatsApp group.

The heated exchange between the two leaders went viral on social media.  The conversation highlighted issues of mistrust and lack of unity within the UDC.
