UDC needs crowd control mechanisms :: Mmegi Online

The ‘lounge’ of the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) office is fully packed with guests, and it is about to get stuffy. The Botswana Congress Party (BCP), coming as a group, and individual members from other partner parties, were queuing with the hope of getting something. How prepared is the UDC for such a crowd, asks MMEGI Staff Writer BAME PIET

Many events are often spoilt by poor management of the crowds. Take a wedding party, when the host family had anticipated five hundred guests only for 2,000 to show up. They normally leave unhappy, complaining that the hosts were ill prepared and should not have bothered with the ceremony. Others swear that they will never attend such a wedding again.

The recent Son of the Soil is one immediate example of how an event can leave a bad taste in the mouths of many. There were all sorts of complaints.
