BDP lobby list takes shape as Makgato steps down

With the date for the election of the party's central committee set for May 10 in Maun, the next month promises to have major surprises as the race for the former ruling party heats up.

Notably this morning, presidential hopeful Dorcas Makgato withdrew from candidacy for the top position to fancy her chances at the party chairship. Makgato had made her intentions known following former president Mokgweetsi Masisi's announcement that BDP members could start canvassing for votes in the Central Committee. She was competing against former vice president Slumber Tsogwane, Mpho Balopi, and Ame Makoba, amongst others.
