Tensions flare at BCP in Selebi Phikwe West

However, the race to replace him has been marred by disputes, prompting the intervention of the BCP executive committee. At the heart of the conflict is an accusation from Reuben Kaizer's camp, also known as 'The Boy', which claims that Brothers Malema's team is not abiding by the rules and regulations governing the primary elections.

Several concerns have arisen, including whether structured primary election campaigns can be conducted in full party gear outside party structures, whether the party attire branded 'The Boy' can be worn by the team members of its leader, and if branded team attire is permissible under specific circumstances. Other issues raised include allegations of card manipulation and the provision of name tags exclusively to Kaizer's team, leaving other constituency members without such identification.
