BPF Recruits Former BDP MPs, Ministers

The Monitor has learnt that the BPF leadership is on a mission to recruit former MPs who appear to be disgruntled within the BDP. The BPF, sources said, is already in talks with four former ruling party legislators and have made appointments with some of them.

The targeted former MPs and ex-Cabinet ministers are those who have a close relationship with former president and BPF patron,Ian Khama. Already, former MP for Palapye, who was also assistant Minister for Tertiary Education, Moiseraela Goya, resigned from the BDP last week and has since joined the BPF. There is speculation that more former MPs will follow this week.
