Masisi Takes The Gloves Off

Then, he labelled the question ‘dikgang tsa dipepere’. Masisi on Saturday came out with guns blazing against Khama and presidential aspirant, Pelonomi Venson-Moitoi. Masisi, who was allocated 40 minutes to officially open the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) South West Regional Congress spoke for more than 90 minutes mostly attacking the two. Masisi told the gathering that ever since he was Vice President, and when he was endorsed to be President nobody in his party was against the move.

“I was lawfully inaugurated as the President of Botswana and also of the BDP. I never doubted this, but there was someone who said they did not agree I was party president. I know it was not their view, they were sent by someone. We discussed it and closed it as the Central Committee, surprisingly it rose again and some supported it,” he said.
