Changing political landscape could favour UDC

Going into inventory of the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) one would realise that for a very long time since the reign of late former president Sir Ketumile Masire this country has been led by successive BDP governments formed by a deeply polarised and limping party. And yet the sky did not fall.

Batswana continued to entrust their future with the BDP in spite of its undisguised internal cracks. In this regard, Batswana must learn to distinguish party affairs from government affairs. Government is not all about party affairs- rather it is a big machinery standing on the shoulders of the public service.
