Khama, whose father Sir Seretse Khama was the founding president of Botswana serving from 1966 to 1980, said he did not have a party yet but will support the opposition parties fight the BDP. TEN YEARSBotswana has a two-term presidential limit and in 2018, Khama had picked his then-vice president Masisi to succeed him after serving the maximum 10 years in office. Khama on Saturday appealed to BDP members to vote for opposition parties in a bid to remove Masisi. I am not sure if I will vote for opposition party in October. If opposition parties enter into a coalition the ruling party will struggle to maintain its grip on power.
