Boko breaks Bophirima silence

Boko announced Mankie Sekete of the BNF as the UDC Bophirima ward candidate despite BCP’s calls to field its preferred candidate being Peter Mogapi. Following the standoff, the BCP has since decided to contest outside the coalition using its name and colours in the upcoming by-election.

“In the 2019 elections we fielded all our candidates and after the elections wherever there is a by-election anywhere whoever stood for the election and lost would automatically stand again in that ward or constituency,” Boko said this week during his UDC presidential tour in Gantsi.
