  • Bethuel Pakalitha Mosisili (born March 14, 1945) has been the Prime Minister of Lesotho since May 29, 1998. He led his party, the Lesotho Congress for Democracy (LCD), to a near-total victory in the 1998 election, and under his leadership the party also won majorities in the 2002 and 2007 elections. In addition to serving as Prime Minister, Mosisili is the Minister of Defense. In 1993, Mosisili was elected to parliament from the Qacha's Nek Constituency and became Minister of Education. On April 14, 1994, he was briefly kidnapped along with three other ministers by soldiers; a fifth minister, Deputy Prime Minister Selometsi Baholo, was killed in this incident. Mosisili was appointed Deputy Prime Minister in late January 1995, while remaining Minister of Education; on July 20, 1995, he was named Minister of Home Affairs and Local Government instead, while remaining Deputy Prime Minister. A new ruling party, the LCD, was formed in 1997 under the leadership of Prime Minister Ntsu Mokhehle as a split from the Basutoland Congress Party. On February 21, 1998, Mosisili was elected leader of the LCD after Mokhehle chose to step down due to poor health. After his party's victory in 1998, there were accusations of vote rigging and mass protests from the opposition parties, which culminated with their occupation of the grounds to the palace. In the ensuing debacle which saw the army, police and king complicit in an attempt to unseat his government, Mosisili had to resort to asking the regional grouping, Southern African Development Community (SADC), for an intervention to stem the imminent coup. New elections were eventually held in May 2002, which his party won, this after a major split led by his former deputy, Kelebone Maope, and Shakhane Mokhehle, the brother of the late founder of his party. On this occasion, Mosisili himself was elected to a seat from the Tsoelike constituency, receiving 79.2% of the vote; in his previous constituency, Qacha's Nek, Pontso Sekatle was the LCD candidate. In October 2006, Tom Thabane left the LCD and formed a new party, and 17 other members of parliament joined him; this left the LCD with a narrow majority of 61 out of 120 seats. On Mosisili's advice, King Letsie III dissolved parliament on November 24, 2006, and a new election was scheduled for February 17, 2007; they had previously been expected in April or May. The LCD won this election, taking 61 seats; the National Independent Party, allied with the LCD, won an additional 21 seats. Whilst attending a funeral in his home district of Qacha's Nek in late 2006, Mosisili gave a speech which quoted a Basotho idiom, "Se sa feleng sea hlola", meaning "anything that does not finish/end is not good". Some believed that he was referring to his term in office and his embattled political party. Armed men attacked Mosisili's residence on April 22, 2009, apparently intending to kill him; three of the attackers, one of whom was reportedly a soldier, were killed by police, and Mosisili was unharmed. Six people appeared before a South African court in July 2009 on charges of helping in the attempt. The Lesotho Communications Minister described the attack as a plot by South African and Mozambican mercenaries to stage a coup in Lesotho.

  • Bethuel Pakalitha Mosisili (né le 14 mars 1945) est l'actuel premier ministre du Lesotho, et ce depuis le 29 mai 1998. Il est également ministre de la Défence. Il représente le parti Congrès du Lesotho pour la démocratie (LCD). Mosisili est diplômé de l'Université du Botswana, du Lesotho et du Swaziland (1970), de l'Université du Wisconsin (1976), de l'Université d'Afrique du Sud (1978) et de l'Université Simon-Fraser (1982). En 1993, Mosisili est élu député, représentant la circonscription Qacha's Nek, et devient ministre de l'Education. Le 14 avril 1994, il est brièvement kidnappé avec trois autres ministres par des soldats; un cinquième membre du gouvernement, le vice-premier ministre Selometsi Baholo, est tué. En janvier 1995, Mosisili est nommé vice-premier ministre. En février 1998, il prend la tête du LCD. Suite à la victoire du LCD aux élections de 1998, qui permet à Mosisili d'accèder au poste de premier ministre, les partis d'opposition l'accusent de fraude électorale; les mouvements de contestation culminent avec une occupation des jardins du palais. Mosisili fait face aux pressions de l'armée, de la police et du roi, qui appellent tous à la chute de son gouvernement. Mosisili fait alors appel à la Communauté de développement d’Afrique australe, et demande à celle-ci d'intervenir pour prévenir tout coup d'Etat. En mai 2002, le LCD de Mosisili remporte à nouveau les élections, malgré une scission au sein du parti. En octobre 2006, le parti se scinde à nouveau, et le "noyau dur" du LCD n'a plus alors qu'une courte majorité de 61 sièges sur 120 au Parlement. Mosisili conseille au roi Letsie III de dissoudre le Parlement, ce qui est fait le 24 novembre. De nouvelles élections ont lieu le 17 février 2007, et le LCD en ressort vainqueur, bien qu'il n'ait à nouveau que 61 sièges. Son allié, le Parti national indépendant (NIP), obtient toutefois 21 sièges. Le 22 avril 2009, les autorités annonçèrent que Mosisili avait survécu à une tentative d'assassinat, des hommes armés ayant ouvert le feu sur sa maison. Mosisili ne fut pas blessé.
