Although results of some constituencies were still unknown, BDP has won 29 of 57 parliament seats in 57 constituencies, Xinhua reported citing the state-run DailyNews.

The government's official facebook "BWgovernment" also reported the result.

The result means current President of Botswana Seretse Khama Ian Khama, the presidential candidate from BDP, would be re-elected.
