Uncertain times at the BDP

When in a position of weakness, feign strength. When in a position of strength, feign weakness. That is what strategist San Tzu proclaimed. In his thinking, one had to keep one's cards close to one's chest and not give away anything if they should conquer.

Coming home, President Ian Khama is yet to give away anything on who will be the country's next president. At any other time, by now it would be known. At this point in time the puzzle is made by that the sitting Vice President is on his way out of politics while the Minister of Finance has no constituency and is a highly unlikely successor. Who will become the next president then remains a mystery.
