Dispute over BNF youth congress deepens

The BNFYL central committee is understood to have met over the weekend and resolved to postpone the elective congress. The decision was apparently arrived at after the party central committee dissuaded the BNFYL from holding the congress in Mochudi so it could be held together with the planned party Leadership Forum in Francistown.

In an earlier interview, BNF spokesperson Moeti Mohwasa said they had agreed with the youth that the congress be held simultaneously with the Leadership Forum and Women's Wing congress to save costs.
