Gaborone Bonnington North is a constituency in Gaborone City represented in the National Assembly of Botswana since 2019 by Anna Mokgethi, a BDP MP. With an area of 23 km2, Gaborone Bonnington North is the second smallest constituency of Botswana after Gaborone Bonnington South.
The constituency was created in 2012, from the former Gaborone West North constituency. In the 2014 elections the constituency was won by Duma Boko, leader and presidential candidate of the Umbrella for Democratic Change, who became leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly. In 2019, however, Boko decisively lost his seat to Annah Mokgethi of the Botswana Democratic Party.[2]
