Tshekedi Khama - brother, MP for Serowe North West
Tshekedi Khama is the younger brother to Ian Khama. He took over the Serowe North-West from his brother Ian Khama when the latter became president. Botswana Democratic Party activist and current Gaborone Central candidate, Gomolemo Motswaledi who was tipped to stand in one of the BDP's safest seats in the bye-election pulled out under controversial circumstances, giving way for Tshekedi. Tshekedi is believed to be poised for a cabinet post in the near future. Tshekedi is also a businessman, being in partnership with his twin brother Anthony.
Tshekedi and his twin brother Anthony were embroiled in media scrutiny a few years ago during the tenure of their brother as commander. This was after allegations that a company they owned, Seleka Springs was being favoured over others supplying equipment to the Botswana Defense Force. Another allegation also pertained to a company called Lobatse Delta, which under the directorship of the Khama twins was reportedly engaged in supplying vehicles to the army.
