Why UDC must deploy its own cadres as accounting officers (PS, DPS, Council Secretaries) Civil servants, often working behind the scenes, can subtly influence the pace of government projects. One way they exert their power is by drowning initiatives in bureaucratic red tape. By insisting on exhaustive documentation and multiple layers of approval, they can slow down the decision-making process, making it difficult for projects to gain momentum. This tactic creates a web of paperwork that can take weeks or even months to navigate, often resulting in delays that frustrate government objectives and timelines. Another strategy involves the strategic allocation of resources. Civil servants may prioritize projects that align with their interests or beliefs, leaving less favorable initiatives understaffed or underfunded. By controlling the flow of resources, they can effectively stymie projects they are less enthusiastic about, leading to a lack of progress and eventual stagnation. This subtle manipulation ensures that only certain projects receive the attention and manpower needed to advance efficiently. Communication is also a powerful tool in the hands of civil servants. By selectively withholding information or providing incomplete data, they can create confusion and misdirection. This can lead to flawed decision-making and further delays, as government officials struggle to piece together accurate pictures of project statuses. Miscommunication can also foster internal disagreements, diverting attention from project advancement to conflict resolution, which can further slow down implementation processes. Lastly, civil servants can exploit procedural loopholes to delay projects. By emphasizing the need to adhere strictly to protocols and regulations, they can create bottlenecks that halt progress. This rigidity can be justified under the guise of compliance, making it difficult for government officials to challenge or bypass these obstacles. By consistently applying these tactics, civil servants can effectively sabotage government projects without attracting significant scrutiny, ensuring that their influence remains both potent and discreet.

This is unacceptable under any circumstances. We did not campaign for this. Removing BDP was never about replacing a corrupt criminal cartel with another corrupt regime. This is not our UDC government. We need an efficient opposition the caliber ele ya bo Molefhabangwe when he was still with the BNF and could single-handedly uproot corruption.

This could make Africa the most powerful continent in the world

Brighton all over Arsenal 1 nil up 😁

The Glaring Red Flags: In a struggling economy, leadership is measured by what you prioritize and what you don't. Mark Zuckerberg wears a plain T-shirt. Steve Jobs wore the same black turtleneck for years. Barack Obama stuck to two suit colors so he could save his decisions for the country. Their message was simple: the work matters more than the wardrobe. If ur leader is preoccupied with designer labels and luxury watches or walking red carpets of fashion while families walk the tightrope of rising prices. The contrast isn't about taste. It's about temperament. When people are cutting back, a leader flaunting excess isn't just tone-deaf; it's a signal. It says the mirror matters more than the mission. The image more than the impact. Successful people simplify so they can focus. This leader accessorizes so he can be seen. One uniform says: I have work to do. The other says: Look at me. In hard times, that's not style. That's a red flag.

I used to think Dumelang hates that comrade kante… When BCP pulled out of the project they were saying there’s no need to take power without a proper plan but at that time we were so tired of BDP corruption nothing mattered. Come to think of it our comrade was always absent in meetings and never cared about the manifesto except for punchlines tsa bo 4k pm, 100k jobs. There’s a UDC document on how we were to govern which is 250 pages I don’t think he has read it

Strategy and tactics in politics mean that sometimes we have to compromise in order to achieve power. Yes we made a mistake but we knew the flaws of this comrade but he was the one sellable at the time. He’s now a liability that we must deal with. We must apologize and find solutions. 2029 is just too far

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely

Second place and 1meter for our boy👌

Announce AJ fight

BW athletes getting all the support they need; such a beautiful thing seeing the First Lady and Minister of Sports there in person. Hopefully Letsile gets the 200m tomorrow

Batswana can someone tell me why Mabaila is always around our athletes? Is he on government payroll or something?
