Botswana National Youth League (BNYL) aspiring leader, Kagiso Ntime has called on President Ian Khama to invite the opposition to form a government of unity to bring order to the country.

Addressing journalists at a press conference in Gaborone, Ntime who is the former BNF administrative secretary, said the current infighting in the ruling BDP has made the country ungovernable.

At the moment we are told that he will be going around the country trying to contain any damage caused by Barata-Phathi who are said to be recruiting members of the BDP to their new party, Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD). So whilst he is going around the country who is governing? He should call us to form a unity government," he said.
