Despite the Botswana Congress Party's (BCP) history of absorbing smaller parties during coalitions, its leader Dumelang Saleshando has assured the public that this would not be the case this time around.

Speaking at a joint press briefing with the Botswana Labour Party (BLP) on Tuesday, Saleshando emphasised that the two parties would work together as equal partners, rather than having one party dominating the other. He also said there would be ongoing dialogue and engagement between the two parties.

Saleshando acknowledged that the BCP has tried working with other parties in the past, but the relationships did not work out. However, he expressed confidence that the BCP’s relationship with the BLP is built on a strong foundation of mutual trust and respect.
