Former president and Botswana Patriotic Front (BPF) patron, Ian Khama, has sent out warnings to the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) at a BPF extraordinary congress, which he participated in virtually.

Khama emphasised that he had a plan to counter the BDP's ‘wicked’ actions in the build-up to the 2024 General Election. Khama minced no words as he expressed his deep-seated concerns about the BDP's leadership. "We started BPF in 2019 because we realised the BDP is corrupt and does not care about Batswana.

They are not capable, as you can see; President Mokgweetsi Masisi is on holiday abroad. He never brings results because he is on a joyride," Khama said. Drawing attention to what he viewed as a skewed focus on foreign affairs by President Masisi, Khama said, "While other countries have foreign affairs ministers, we have a foreign affairs president who is always at foreign countries.
