He cites his "business commitments" as incompatible with political involvement. The political strategist refrains from specifying the duration of his hiatus.
A notable figure, Moyo, who has not disclosed the duration of his hiatus, was expelled from the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) leading up to the 2019 general elections. Allegations surfaced regarding his organization of an unauthorized party meeting in Serowe and his criticism of President Mokgweetsi Masisi's leadership style. Subsequently, he relocated to South Africa, citing concerns for his safety.
However, the Directorate of Intelligence and Security Service (DISS) associated Moyo's departure with tax investigations involving him personally and a controversial oil company he owned. Upon his return to Botswana, he joined the opposition Botswana Patriotic Front (BPF), where he later resigned due to disagreements with the party's patron, Ian Khama.
Moyo then declared his affiliation with the coalition Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC), aiming to challenge the BDP in the upcoming elections in Tati East. However, he did not clarify whether he was joining the UDC directly as an individual or through membership in an affiliate party, the two available options within the coalition.
Although the UDC has designated Tati East to the Botswana Peoples Party (BPP), two parliamentary hopefuls are anticipated to compete in primary elections to determine the candidate.
