Botswana Prepares for Crucial Election as President Masisi Seeks Second Term
Botswana is set to vote today in an election that will decide if President Mokgweetsi Masisi can secure a second term amid economic challenges linked to declining diamond demand according to Reuters. The Botswana Democratic Party, in power since 1966, remains the frontrunner despite facing a drop in popularity, as voters will elect a National Assembly, with the largest party responsible for selecting the president.
