Moyo quits politics

FRANCISTOWN: The Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) Tati East legislator, Samson Guma Moyo has declared intentions to resign from Parliament.

He told Mmegi last Friday he has communicated intention to quit Parliament and active politics to President Ian Khama and Vice President Mokgweetsi Masisi, and that both were against the move. 

He said he was not being forced out by the recent troubles with the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP). Moyo insisted that the sole reason is to give attention to his Johannesburg-based assignment as a board member of the African Democratic Institute (ADI).
