The Botswana People’s Party (BPP) is not just talking revival; it is living it.

Speaking to The Monitor on Sunday, BPP spokesperson Mmantlha Sankoloba said the party’s gathering in Tati East on Saturday was more than a meeting; it was a reaffirmation of purpose.

“Our revival is not symbolic. It is real, felt in every village, every ward where the BPP still holds meaning for our people,” she said. Sankoloba said the party is going all out to recruit new members and to make it appealing to the people. Held at the Tati Siding Community Hall under the banner 'Operation Revive BPP: 2025 and Beyond', the conference brought together members and sympathisers from across the constituency. This comes as part of the party's mobilisation strategy as it prepares for its elective congress this year, where members will elect the party leadership. It marked another deliberate step in the party’s national mobilisation campaign, a journey to reconnect with the grassroots and inject life back into BPP structures ahead of its 65th anniversary. Amidst speeches, songs, and solidarity, the call was clear: the BPP is stepping out of the shadows. Party president, Motlatsi Molapise, did not mince his words. He urged councillors and ordinary members alike to return to their communities with purpose and urgency. “This movement is no longer clinging to survival,” he said. “We have what it takes to grow, and we must. This is about restoring belief, rebuilding unity, and reviving the soul of our nation.”
