The founding President of the Botswana Patriotic Front (BPF) Biggie Butale says his new political party - Botswana Republican Party (BRP) - promises a set of core principles and specific strategies to tackle the critical issues facing the nation.
According to Butale, the BRP aims to leave its imprint on the political canvass, it underscores its dedication to fundamental human rights, individual freedoms, and the overall well-being of Botswana's citizens.
Butale says the foundation of his new party rests on a series of core principles, meticulously crafted to shape a vision for a more just and prosperous Botswana.
Among these principles, Butale emphasises the BRP's commitment to safeguarding fundamental human rights and individual freedoms, underscoring the party's dedication to building a society that respects the dignity and rights of all citizens.
He says the BRP’s goal is to protect the freedom of assembly and association, thwarting the infiltration of oppressive cultures that may be alien to Botswana's society.
This commitment highlights the party's dedication to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment.
Moreover, Butale states that the BRP seeks to shield Batswana from all forms of power abuse and corruption by elites, reflecting the party's determination to ensure transparency, accountability, and fairness in governance.
The party envisions empowering Batswana to actively participate in the country's economy, emphasising a shift from passive observers to active contributors. This approach aims to enhance economic participation and instil a sense of ownership among citizens.
Butale emphasises the BRP's commitment to maintaining and enhancing Botswana's democracy and human rights record, stressing the importance of preserving the country's democratic values. He explains that recognising the significance of unity, the BRP aims to bring together individuals and groups that uphold Republican values, fostering a collective effort towards realising the objectives of a national democratic and economic revolution.
To address issues related to social and economic development, Butale notes that the BRP advocates for greater private sector participation in the economy, with the government playing a facilitative role. This approach aims to foster social and economic equality.
The BRP has identified specific issues and challenges to address, including high unemployment, poverty, income inequality, shortage of drugs in hospitals and clinics, food security, corruption, and freedom of the press.
These challenges will serve as focal points for the party's policy initiatives and reform agenda. BRP has outlined specific strategies for fostering job creation, poverty reduction, and infrastructure development.
Notable among these strategies is the commitment to a private sector-led economy, providing a conducive environment through financial guarantees and increased government-controlled companies.
This approach is designed to stimulate job creation, economic growth, and infrastructure development.
