Kgang, Mabaila throttle one another

One of the hopefuls, Kgang Kgang, has written a letter of complaint to the party secretary general, Mpho Balopi pleading that another candidate, Tshephang Mabaila be reprimanded for ‘playing dirty’. Kgang accuses Mabaila of sponsoring a story to a popular Facebook page Daniel Dan Kenosi in a bid to discredit him as a trustworthy candidate.

He also complains that Mabaila is controlling the branch even though he is not in the branch committee. “Mabaila is a law unto himself and some of his campaign team members are members of the branch committee contrary to Article 10 of the code of conduct. He uses his house-to-house campaign for rumour mongering and castigating other candidates as he alleges he is sent by the most top leadership of the party, namely the party President [Ian Khama], to represent Mogoditshane. He even threatens members of structures with expulsion from the party by the President.
