No delivery yet on BDP electoral promises :: Mmegi Online

It has been a year since Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) was given yet another term to lead the country following its victory in the 2019 National General elections. Prior to the elections, the party presented its manifesto to the nation. Reporter TSAONE BASIMANEBOTLHE takes the nation through an analysis of what has been achieved and what still remains a challenge for the party.

The party through its manifesto promised to among others conduct a comprehensive constitutional, legislative and policy review, job creation, and even manufacture an electric car. So far the wheels of implementation seem to be moving slowly for the party. Little has been done and with this, some members of the public, opposition parties and some members of the ruling party have been calling the party to kick start constitutional review but nothing been done to deliver on the promises.

So far, Mmegi has learnt that the government is planning to appoint a Constitutional Review Commission before the end of 2020.
