BDP preaches unity

Goya beat Health Minister Professor Sheila Tlou twice in the primaries to clinch the BDP ticket. There has been talk that some supporters of Tlou intend to boycott the by-election or vote for the opposition.

The mood of the party leadership was aptly captured when cabinet minister and BDP stalwart Daniel Kwelagobe urged the well-attended rally to unite, maintain peace and reconcile even if during the primaries "you stepped on each other's toes".
