Maseru, March 03 — The former Public Relations Officer of the Democratic Congress (DC) Mr. Bothata Mahlala has confirmed that he has handed over his letter of resignation from the party and is forming his own political party.
Speaking in an interview with the Agency on Monday, Mr. Mahlala said that some of the reasons that made him leave DC include that of not having the same vision with the rest of the party leadership and the well being of the nation.
He mentioned that when he joined DC, he was hoping for a platform that would ensure tackling issues such as unemployment and nepotism but to his dismay, such was not achieved as the party was filled with people who were looking for or aiming for their own benefit and not of the nation.
Mr. Mahlala stated that as mentioned he is starting his own political party and arrangements are in the pipeline towards the selection of colours and a name that the authorising institutions will allow him to use. NT/TL
