BMD Factions To Appear Before UDC NEC

Monday, August 21, 2017

The Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD) national executive committee led by Ndaba Gaolathe has written to the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) national executive committee assuring it would appear before the coalition tomorrow.

This comes after UDC National Executive Committee (NEC) wrote to the two BMD teams that if they want the UDC NEC to intervene and try to resolve the problems within their party, they should respond to them committing that they would appear.

Both sides, one led by Sidney Pilane and the other by Gaolathe, are supposed to brief the committee of what led the BMD to be in this mess. Thereafter, the UDC would then announce their verdict on the matter.
