According to Tsogwane, politics is not about holding titles or gaining personal benefits; instead, it is about genuine passion and a deep-rooted love for one’s country and party. In an interview with him on Sunday in Maun, Tsogwane emphasised that his commitment to the BDP remains unwavering. He explained, “If I am only active when I want a position, then I would be failing my party. This party is the reason I am who I am today.” He further noted that while many citizens came to know him when he held prestigious positions such as Minister and Vice President, true BDP loyalists were aware of his contributions even before the appointments.
“Democrats knew me when I had nothing. I sat on the parliamentary backbench for years before becoming a Minister,” he said, illustrating the depth of his journey and dedication to the party. Transitioning from this personal reflection, Tsogwane made it clear that his political decisions are self-motivated. He said that no one would dictate his actions, just as no one forced him to join the party in his youth. “I joined BDP at a time when it wasn’t fashionable. No one pushed me into it, and likewise, no one will push me out,” he pointed out. Tsogwane highlighted his personal conviction and voluntary service within BDP.
