Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) president, Duma Boko, has sent a stern warning to the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) secretary, Jefferson Siamisang, to uphold the integrity of the elections and make sure that they are fair.

Addressing the media yesterday after his successful presidential nomination at the Gaborone High Court, Boko stated that this year they do not want a repeat of the 2019 General Election where the UDC believed that Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) cheated their way to Parliament. Boko will be vying for the presidential seat against the current President, Mokgweetsi Masisi, Dumelang Saleshando of the BCP, and BPF president, Mephato Reatile.

Boko emphasised that if it so happens that the elections are rigged, people are going to be held accountable and they will see to it that such people pay the price.
