After a period of introspection, the party is now poised to regain its footing and make a meaningful impact on the country's political landscape. According to the BPP president, Motlatsi Molapisi, the BPP is working towards a brighter future for Batswana, emphasising economic growth and development.

Despite facing challenges, he stated that the party remains committed to its principles and is working towards regaining its footing in the country’s political landscape.

He stated that the BPP's revival efforts are focused on strengthening its structures and increasing its visibility across the country. Molapisi highlighted the importance of party members working tirelessly to promote the party's interests and values.

He urged party members to work together and avoid internal conflicts that could undermine the party's efforts. He also spoke about the party's focus on recruiting new members and empowering existing ones to ensure a strong and vibrant membership base.

Molapisi further acknowledged the economic difficulties facing the country and emphasised the need for effective management and resource allocation.

He stated that they plan to strengthen party structures from ward committees and cells that can support its growth and activities.

“There has to be the formation of interim committees and party structures across the region,” he added. The BPP president indicated that the party's policy is rooted in pan-Africanism.

Molapisi stressed the importance of increased activities and demonstrations to revive the party and avoid losing in the next general elections. On another note, he recognised the ongoing economic challenges facing the country.

He noted that the UDC-led government inherited these issues, including poverty, unemployment, water, and healthcare concerns. Molapisi said that the government is working hard to address these challenges and improve the livelihoods of Batswana.

Regarding the P4,000 minimum wage promise, Molapisi stated that it is their duty as BPP members to answer questions arising regarding our government promises. “We need to answer people that P4,000 is on the way, in due time. The government is unable to fulfil its promise, including the P2,500 allowance for tertiary students, due to the economic crisis they are facing,” he added.

Molapisi expressed the party's commitment to empowering Batswana economically, highlighting the need for members to recruit new people to join the party for its revival.
