Nyeku: "I'm ready for BDP challenge"

Thursday, May 20, 2010

FRANCISTOWN: Shadreck Nyeku, Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD) councillor and City Mayor said yesterday that he is ready to defend his seat from an impending ouster by the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) councillors.

"I am already informed that BDP councillors, associated with the party's A-Team, are going to move a motion of no confidence against my administration with a view to ousting me. I am confident that they do not have the requisite numbers to do so," stated a confident Nyeku.

The mayor said that although he was not certain as to who was leaving and who was remaining, "I cannot be threatened by people who only have five supporters on their side".
