A look at BCP under Saleshando leadership

Saleshando has been the BCP president since 2010 after the retirement of his father, Gilson Saleshando from active politics. When he took over, the party members gave him a clear mandate to ensure that the party should penetrate all corners of the country. Subsequently, as part of the mandate he had a strong desire to steer the party forward and form teams that would help him to revive the party . The new elected central committee then at the Maun conference, was tasked to start negotiations with other opposition parties for possible cooperation.

The teams were to tour the country as part of a robust membership drive and also to attract the youth. Within the BCP, he ensured that women have a representatiion of 30% in all party structures and they should not be challenged when aspiring for parliamentary seats.
