BDP dismisses Moatlhodi

Apparently the BDP appeals committee felt that the two appellants did not furnish enough evidence to warrant a re-run of the primaries.Yesterday, the only appeals left to be heard were for Kweneng region. Mmegi has learnt that the Minister of Local Government, Peter Siele's case for Mmathethe/Molapowabojang was not listened to because he had withdrawn his appeal. The BDP secretary-general Mpho Balopi confirmed yesterday that Kweneng region appeals were still left. The appeals' committee is expected to finish the appeals tomorrow. 

The appeals committee is made up of Sechele Sechele (executive secretary), Lee Lesetedi (electoral board secretary), Alec Seametso, Lesego Pule and additional members of the central committee Tebatso Lekalake and Victor Motobaki.
