Botswana Congress Party Youth League (BCPYL) has labelled leader of the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) Duma Boko a dictator and accused him of suspending the coalitionâs constitution in order to run a one man show.
BCP Youth League President Thabologo Furniture told Sunday Standard that Boko is undermining attempts to hold a UDC elective congress to vote for a new leadership ahead of the 2024 general elections.
“We have long taken a decision as the youth league that UDC needs to be democratised such that we can hold an elective congress. The leader of the UDC has decided to suspend the constitution for reasons known to himself. He continues with his dictatorship within the UDC,” said Furniture.
