Botswana Congress Party (BCP) women’s league president Ms Tshimologo Dingake has asked electorates to vote for the party candidate Mr Gaolathe Kenosi  in the Mmaphula East bye-election as he was capable of taking Botswana forward.

Addressing a star rally in Palapye on Friday, Ms Dingake said the area was lagging behind in developments, adding that the ward was vast and therefore needed a clinic to rescue residents from travelling long distances to access health services.

She urged electorates to scrutinize candidates and vote for the most capable contender, Mr Kenosi.

She said the future of the country should not be compromised thus electorates must make the right decisions when they vote.

She said BCP was capable of creating employment opportunities, pointing out that visionary leadership was paramount in taking the country to greater heights.

She urged electorates to shun corruption at all costs as it deprived Batswana the right to benefit from the country’s wealth and resources.

She said other countries were suffering because they did not make the right choice when voting.

She said prudent financial management and the country’s natural resources were paramount at this point in time to take the country forward.

She said Batswana deserved better and should know that BCP was ready to lead.

BCP stalwart and former councilor, Mr Pholoma Kgetse, said his party would strive to bring services and developments closer to people once given a chance to prove its mettle.

He said it was his party’s wish to ensure that services reached people at all times, noting that BCP offered valuable recourse for those in critical need.

Another BCP stalwart and also former councilor, Mr Thapelo Mosothwane said his party believed in women capabilities thus it was of the view that they should be given a chance to be in leadership positions.

He said the country was rich in resources and therefore needed quality management to soar .

The candidate, Mr Kenosi said when elected he would strive to bring amenities to the area. He urged electorates to vote wisely to ensure that services reached them at all times. Ends
