This is another instalment of the newsroom debate after a long absence. In this news piece, Mmegi Staffer RYDER GABATHUSE engages newsroom colleagues following reports that Vice President Slumber Tsogwane, who is also the party chairperson, is allegedly leading a party faction ahead of the 2024 General Election.

A party insider who prefers anonymity has, however, dismissed reports associating Tsogwane with an emerging party faction emphasising: “In my view, a faction needs a structure.

The BDP spokesperson, Kagelelo Kentse, dismissed talk of the emergence of a faction led by Tsogwane.
