Rari undecided on re-election bid

In 2021, Rari secured a fourth term after defeating Innocent Mannathoko, Sekgwama Gobusamang and Wabo Tshosa at the union’s elective congress held in Palapye. He had previously indicated his reluctance to seek another term in an interview with Mmegi. However, this week he remained non-committal when pressed on whether he plans to step down when his term elapses in four months or seek a fifth term.

He said discussions within the union about cadre deployment are ongoing, hence his hesitation to declare whether he is contesting or not.
