Up to 1 million eligible voters in Botswana are set to participate in a tense general election on Wednesday, 30 October 2024.
Botswana is known as Africa’s longest-serving democracy and one of the continent’s most stable countries, having peacefully transitioned power in all elections since gaining independence from Britain in the 1960s.
However, election observer Tendai Mbanje of the African Centre for Governance Election Observation told <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/10/30/botswana-election-who-is-in-the-running-and-whats-at-stake">Al Jazeera</a> that there are fears of potential post-election violence due to increased political competition and shifting political dynamics
Botswana operates an indirect election system where voters elect members of parliament. The leader of the governing party is appointed as president after the vote count.
Voters will elect 61 members of the National Assembly and 609 local council seats across 16 local authorities, using a first-past-the-post or preferential voting system.
Botswana is a multi-party state, but the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) has dominated elections since 1969.
The BDP secured 38 of 57 seats in the 2019 election and is expected to perform strongly again in this election.
<h2>Who is running?</h2>
<h3>President Mokgweetsi Masisi</h3>
Representing the BDP, Masisi is running for another term at 63. Despite internal frictions, the BDP remains strong in rural areas and among the Tswana-majority. 
Masisi, initially handpicked by former President Ian Khama, fell out with him after taking office in 2018, leading to Khama’s exit from the party.
Masisi’s term has been marked by internal party conflicts and economic challenges, including rising inflation and unemployment due to a global diamond price downturn. Internationally, his stance on elephant hunting has been controversial.
Despite these issues, he renegotiated a favourable diamond agreement with De Beers. While Botswana has a history of peaceful elections, there are concerns about post-election tensions due to internal party struggles and dissatisfaction with Masisi’s economic policies.
<h3>Duma Boko</h3>
The 54-year-old lawyer leads a coalition of opposition parties under the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC). In 2019, the UDC significantly challenged the BDP, securing second place with 15 seats.
Boko remains the biggest threat to Masisi, as the usually weak Botswana opposition gains popularity. 
Some local analysts speculate that the election result might be too close to call, although opinions vary. 
Boko’s UDC is promising more lucrative jobs for young people and has tried to attract voters with the promise of government stipends.
<h3>Dumelang Saleshando</h3>
Saleshando, 53, leads the Botswana Congress Party (BCP), one of the main opposition parties. In previous elections, the BCP has secured between 10-20 per cent of the vote.
The party has pledged to “save Botswana” and aims to raise the average monthly living wage to 4,000 pula ($299) by 2029, up from the current 1,500 pula ($112).
<h3>Mephato Reatile</h3>
Reatile leads the Botswana Patriotic Front, a relatively new party with only four members in parliament. The party was formed by followers of ex-President Khama after he departed from the BDP.
Khama returned from a three-year self-imposed exile in South Africa this September to support the party, aiming to unseat the BDP and his rival, Masisi, which has heightened election tensions.
Upon his return, Khama also faced court charges for illegal gun possession and money laundering, adding to the controversy.

Botswana is having an election where 1 million people can vote. There may be violence after the election. The ruling party usually wins, but the opposition is stronger this time. The current president, Masisi, has some issues, but also some achievements. The main opponents are Boko, who promises more jobs, Saleshando, who wants to increase wages, and Reatile, who used to work with a former president. This election is big and people are watching closely to see what happens.

Botswana Holds General Election, One Million Eligible To Vote

Zimbabwe’s Ambassador to Botswana, Henry Mukonoweshuro, has urged Zimbabwean nationals residing in the neighbouring country to exercise increased vigilance amid rising threats of violence against them.
This warning comes in response to reports suggesting that some Batswana plan to launch attacks on Zimbabweans following a controversial campaign by ZANU PF members, led by Patrick Chinamasa, in support of the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) ahead of the October 30 harmonised elections.
President Mokgweetsi Masisi of Botswana, who is seeking reelection, is considered a close ally of Zimbabwe’s leader, Emmerson Mnangagwa.
In a statement issued on Friday, Mukonoweshuro reassured the Zimbabwean community that the Embassy has received commitments from the Botswana Police Services (BPS) to ensure the safety of all law-abiding Zimbabweans during this electoral period. Said Mukonoweshuro:
<blockquote>
Following recent social media reports alleging possible involvement of Zimbabwean nationals in the Botswana electoral processes and the negative reactions thereafter, the Embassy wishes to advise all Zimbabwean nationals resident in Botswana to exercise caution during this election period.
The Embassy has been assured by the Botswana Police Services (BPS) that all law-abiding citizens, including Zimbabweans, should not fear to go ahead about their daily routine during the electoral period.
</blockquote>
Former opposition Member of Parliament, Job Sikhala, has called on ZANU PF to stop meddling in the electoral processes of neighbouring countries.
He warned that such interference not only jeopardizes the stability of those nations but also puts Zimbabweans living there at risk.
Sikhala warned that ZANU PF’s actions could lead to serious repercussions for Zimbabwe’s relations with its neighbours and urged the party to respect the sovereignty and electoral integrity of other countries.

Zimbabwe's Ambassador to Botswana is warning Zimbabweans in Botswana to be careful because of possible violence from locals. This is because ZANU PF members are supporting the ruling party in Botswana, angering some Batswana. The Ambassador says the Botswana Police will protect Zimbabweans. An opposition leader, Job Sikhala, says ZANU PF should stop interfering in other countries' elections to keep Zimbabweans safe. It's important for Zimbabwe to have good relationships with its neighbors and respect their elections.

Zim Ambassador Requests Botswana Police Protection For Zimbabweans After ZANU PF "Meddling" Angers Batswana

ZANU PF has dismissed allegations by former Botswana President Ian Khama that it interfered in regional electoral processes to support fellow ruling parties.
The party’s Director for Information and Publicity denied any involvement in elections in neighbouring countries and accused Khama of being a Western stooge engaged in regime change efforts.
He also claimed that Khama is unpopular in his own country and is likely to lose the upcoming elections. Said Marapira (<a href="https://newziana.co.zw/zanu-pf-dismisses-ex-president-khamas-electoral-accusations/">New Ziana</a>):
<blockquote>
Nothing pleases us more than seeing lackeys and lapdogs of imperialism in sixes and sevens as they see their neo-colonialist agenda blown to smithereens by the resurgent winds of pan-Africanism sweeping across mother Africa.
To blame ZANU PF for your lack of ideological soundness is not only blatantly denialist but also puerile madness.
ZANU PF does not interfere in the expression of their wishes by sons and daughters of Africa. It is those who see the writing on the wall and fail to accept it through escapist drive who wish to deny the people their voice. We wish the people of Botswana more and more glory. Happy elections Botswana!
</blockquote>
Speaking at a campaign rally in Botswana, Khama labelled ZANU PF a “regional cancer,” accusing the party of undermining democracy throughout Southern Africa by allegedly supporting other ruling parties.

ZANU PF said they didn't meddle in other countries' elections to help other ruling parties. They also said Khama is a puppet of the West trying to change governments. ZANU PF thinks Khama will lose his own election. They say they believe in letting African people choose their leaders. Khama called ZANU PF a problem in the region, accusing them of not wanting democracy. They argued back, saying they support African voices. Khama spoke out at a rally in Botswana against ZANU PF.

ZANU PF Rejects Allegations Of Election Meddling By Ian Khama

Former Botswana president Ian Khama has warned the opposition about ZANU PF’s alleged election rigging activities in the southern African region, saying Zimbabwe’s ruling party “had become a regional cancer”.
Botswana, Africa’s longest democracy, is scheduled to hold General Elections on 30 October 2024.
Khama, campaigning for Butale, addressed supporters at a rally, alleging a plot to rig the upcoming elections on October 30, 2024, in favour of President Mokgweetsi Masisi.
According to media reports, Khama claimed that ZANU PF has become a regional threat, undermining democracy by interfering in other countries’ electoral processes.
He accused Zanu PF of sending agents to rig the forthcoming elections in Botswana.
While campaigning for BPF parliamentary candidate Modiri Jojo Lucas in Francistown, Khama alleged that the Botswana ruling party was preparing to rig the general elections by using Zimbabweans to vote for President Masisi. He said:
<blockquote>
The ruling party is preparing to rig the general elections by using Zimbabweans to vote here in Botswana. If Zimbabweans managed to cast their votes in Mozambique’s general elections, they could do that to help the ruling party in Botswana.
</blockquote>
Masisi declared October 30 and 31 as public holidays to encourage citizens to vote.
Masisi is seeking a second term, which would be his final one if he is reelected.
According to <a href="https://masvingomirror.com/undercover-zim-journalists-vote-in-mozambique-elections/">The Mirror</a>, a regional publication in Zimbabwe, some Zimbabweans, including two undercover journalists, voted in Mozambique’s recent general elections.
The journalists, who were investigating potential electoral rigging, were among the hundreds who cast their votes at Nemanwa Growth Point, just outside Masvingo.
Earlier reports from the Mirror indicated that ZANU PF was mobilising its supporters to register for the Mozambique elections, which took place on October 9, 2024.

Several individuals confirmed their identities as Zimbabweans who had voted in the Mozambican elections.
The two journalists reported that they encountered no issues while voting, having presented both their local national identity cards and Mozambican voters’ cards at the polling stations.
Zimbabwean opposition politician Job Sikhala said that by sending its supporters to vote in Mozambique’s general elections, ZANU PF has become a security threat in the SADC region. 
However, ZANU PF has consistently denied accusations of rigging elections, asserting that it wins fairly because its policies resonate with the electorate.
Similarly, the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has dismissed allegations of election rigging in favour of ZANU PF.

Former Botswana president Ian Khama said ZANU PF might cheat in the elections in Botswana. Botswana will have elections on October 30, 2024. Khama thinks ZANU PF is evil and is trying to ruin elections in Botswana. He believes they will try to make people from Zimbabwe vote for President Masisi in Botswana. President Masisi wants to be elected again. Some Zimbabweans already voted in Mozambique's elections. But ZANU PF says they win elections fair and square.
