Secretary general of Botswana Democratic Party (BDP), Mpho Balopi has slammed the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) president, Duma Boko for ‘working’ with ex-president Ian Khama after labelling him a killer.

He challenged the UDC leadership to produce the Gomolemo Motswaledi death report before seeking to be elected into power. Balopi was speaking on Saturday at the launch of Lefoko Moagi who is the BDP parliamentary candidate for Ramotswa constituency.

“I was the party secretary general when we went to elections in 2014. People were scared of our party saying we kill people. They said we were a bad party that denied people to go out,” said Balopi.
