BOFEPUSU secretary for labour, Johnson Moshwarakgole and secretary for education, Samuel Molaodi said the electoral cooperation of the three UDC parties is what Batswana have been crying for over the years. The UDC is comprised of the Botswana National Front (BNF), Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD) and Botswana Peoples Party (BPP).

Speaking during the launch of the UDC parliamentary candidate for Gabane/Mankgodi, Pius Mokgware, Molaodi said other parties that seek votes outside the umbrella would not have the support of BOFEPUSU. “Political parties that are not cooperating with others would not get our support,” said Molaodi.

BOFEPUSU has made it clear that it would urge more than 90,000 members of unions that form the federation to shun politicians who are anti-labour movement. BOFEPUSU is made up of the Botswana Teachers Union (BTU), Botswana Sectors of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU), Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU), Botswana Land Boards, Local Authorities and Health Workers Union (BLLAWHU) and the National Amalgamated, Central and Local Government and Parastatal Workers Union (NACLGPWU).
