Rakgari calls for respect of UDC leadership

Tuesday, May 02, 2017

The Botswana Congress Party Youth League (BCPYL) Tumiso Rakgare has appealed to members to respect Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) leaders. Addressing the youth conference in Ramotswa over the weekend, Rakgari said before pointing accusing fingers, members should look within. “We cannot expect people to respect our leaders if we are the ones who are failing to do so.

The party has agreed to cooperate with other opposition parties and we have to accept that.” He noted that, “some members of the youth league were part of negotiation teams.

If there is any mistake that has happened during the talks, then we are all to be blamed, both motherbody and the youth league”. Rakgari said members have a tendency of insulting party leadership, especially when they debate issues about cooperation.
