💨 Abstract

In Botswana, the ruling party that had been in power for nearly six decades suffered a landslide defeat, with opposition candidate Duma Boko of the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) winning the presidential election. The BDP's downfall was attributed to mounting economic grievances, particularly among young people, resulting from a decline in the diamond trade and economic stagnation.
