Botswana's political landscape has been dramatically reshaped following a stunning electoral upset in which the long-dominant ruling party conceded defeat after nearly 60 years of uninterrupted governance.

On Friday 1 November, Botswana’s President Mokgweetsi Masisi acknowledged the outcome of the general elections, which saw Duma Boko of the opposition Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) emerging victorious in these elections.

All five of Botswana’s presidents have come from the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) and this electoral outcome not only marks a pivotal moment in Botswana's democratic journey but also raises questions about the future direction of one of Southern Africa’s most resource-rich nations.
