Masisi's BDP Government Harassment Of Political Opponents Is Bad For Democracy

Today, and throughout this week, Botswana Unified Revenue Services (BURS) has been invading the home of UDC President and Leader of the Opposition Duma Boko, harassing the family, enquiring about the movement of Mr Boko, the mode of transport he uses and which border used to travel to South Africa. All of this is a violation of the private rights of Mr. Boko. 

What is currently unfolding in our Political landscape is catastrophic for our democracy, particularly in an election year. These can be summarised as acts of cowardice, intolerance and an attempt to retain power by all means including undemocratic ones.
