Kwelagobe, Seretse camps go for broke

Calls from some quarters to do away with the democratic process in favour of a negotiated settlement or compromise appear to have fallen on deaf ears.

Champions of peace like former president Sir Ketumile Masire, renowned businessman and BDP treasurer Satar Dada, Gaborone-based attorney Parks Tafa, and President Ian Khama's younger brother Tshekedi Khama, tried to restore 'sanity' to their beloved party, in vain.  Perhaps, this steadfastness by those who resist a compromise is a reflection of their readiness for the political fight.
