The Botswana Republican Party (BRP) is a Christian-democratic political party in Botswana led by former Tati West MP, Biggie Butale. It was founded in 2023 as a result of a split from the Botswana Patriotic Front (BPF) following a prolonged leadership battle between Butale and the BPF. This battle ultimately led to Butale's expulsion from the BPF and the foundation of the BRP.[1][2]
