The Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) Central Committee (CC), Secretary General, Kavis Kario, says all 14 regional committees have submitted their decisions and recommendations regarding appeals on the outcomes of the party's primary elections held on the 20th July and 27th July, 2024.

Kario further confirmed that all regions met the deadline set by the CC.

"There is no pending recommendation or decision before any region. Regional committees make recommendations and decisions to the CC, although one can appeal a regional committee's decision," he said.

When asked specifically about the Southern region's decisions on the Goodhope/Mmathethe constituency, which had two cabinet ministers, Edwin Dikoloti (Minister of Health and Wellness and Peggy Serame (Minister of Finance) contesting to represent the party at the upcoming general election, Kario said that they have received the region's recommendation. Mmegi Online has been reliably informed that the regional committee has dismissed an appeal by Minister Serame, who contested the outcome. Information reaching Mmegi Online has established that the region has been in meeting to change the recommendation submitted to CC.

Goodhope/Mmathethe primary elections were held on the 20th of July, 2024. Minister Serame lost with a considerable margin, as she got 4031 to Minister Dikoloti's 5758.
