Q: What inspired you to join politics?
Bokamoso Modibedi, 33, BDP National Youth Executive Committee:
To influence policy reforms especially on education, youth empowerment, and women empowerment.
Bonnie Tlhagwane, 30, BCP Youth League Secretary-General
Largely because of Dumelang Saleshando. I have been following him from a young age and some issues he raised hit close to home.
