Who is the next VP?

So bruised is the BDP that it managed to only marginally win a 18 constituencies.  Khama would know the BDP is walking a terrain of sifting sand and a little veer to the side will upset the hungry sands of emotion. There is no telling what upset BDP MPs might do, but one possibility is that they could decamp to the opposition, forcing a snap general election, which would most certainly finish off the BDP. So in choosing his deputy, Khama would want a unifying figure. He would also want to retain the many MPs on marginal constituencies.

“To keep most of them, he will need to appoint them to cabinet,” says political analyst Dr Zibani Maundeni.
