Moupo Has No Mandate To Negotiate With BCP

Recently, the media has been reporting that Botswana National Front (BNF) president, Otsweletse Moupo, and some of our leadership have been having secret meetings with the Botswana Congress Party (BCP) asking to cooperate with them.

One wonders whether Moupo will ever live up to the reality that his leadership of the BNF is the worst thing that has ever befallen our party. While most of us are calling for him to resign his post, he goes around seeking ways to save his political life after being humiliated by Maemo Bantsi in the primaries. Moupo's secret meetings with the BCP is a direct betrayal of some of our comrades especially those who have gone through the process of primaries in their constituencies. What is he saying now to them, does he want them to start from scratch with the hope of finding some space back to Parliament through some crafty opposition cooperation schemes?

Previously, major decisions such as deciding to cooperate with other political parties was executed as a mandate given by the BNF masses at our conferences and congresses. It is now surprising that Moupo is leading some lost leaders in our movement to negotiate with the BCP without any mandate from the masses.
