Namibian opposition leader Job Amupanda, head of the Affirmative Repositioning movement, has accused ZANU PF of interfering in Namibia’s elections held on November 30.
During a press conference on Monday, Amupanda warned the governing South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO) that its ties with ZANU PF could have detrimental consequences. He said (via <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/namibia-opposition-warns-of-long-time-political-chaos-caused-by-zanu-pfs-interference/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>):
<blockquote>
ZANU PF will side with one faction of the ruling party and will create a lot of chaos. You see already the factions are there. It is easier to enjoy the funny things that are happening.
We ought to say that you can’t have ZANU PF people on Twitter and Facebook and everywhere who are saying this is what is happening. The ZANU PF are the ones who are celebrating. SWAPO people are quiet but it is ZANU PF celebrating.
</blockquote>
Over the weekend, President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s spokesperson, George Charamba, prematurely celebrated the victory of SWAPO candidate Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, although the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) had not yet declared the official results.
ZANU PF has faced accusations of interfering in recent elections in both Mozambique and Namibia.
Amupanda warned that the repercussions of ZANU PF’s interference in Namibia would be felt for years to come. He said:
<blockquote>
We are warning those SWAPO. One day they will remember this warning that it is fine to think that you have a strategy to rig the elections.
You think you have a strategy to use ZANU PF? But remember you gave birth to this country.
ZANU PF is going to integrate themselves into our intelligence system. ZANU PF is going to integrate itself into our civil society. Is going to integrate itself in all facets of our society.
I can guarantee you this when those factions continue to fight and SWAPO loses power. ZANU PF will run to the nearest available political party.

ZANU PF supported SWAPO candidate early, before official results were out. Amupanda worries ZANU PF will cause long-term problems in Namibia. He says SWAPO should be careful and not let ZANU PF control their country. ZANU PF has a history of interfering in other countries' elections. Amupanda wants SWAPO to be cautious or they may lose power to ZANU PF in the future.

Namibian Opposition Leader Warns ZANU PF’s Election "Interference" A Recipe For Future Chaos

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has congratulated Ndemupelila Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, the newly elected President of Namibia, following her victory in the presidential election held on November 30.
Nandi-Ndaitwah, the 72-year-old candidate from the ruling South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO), secured over 57% of the votes cast, while her closest rival, Panduleni Itula of the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC), garnered 26%.
In the National Assembly elections, SWAPO won 51 of the 96 seats, while the IPC secured 20 seats.
In his congratulatory message on Wednesday, December 4, Mnangagwa said that Nandi-Ndaitwah’s victory reflects the trust and confidence that the people of Namibia have in her leadership. He wrote:
<blockquote>
On behalf of the Government and people of the Republic of Zimbabwe and on my own behalf, I wish to extend to you my most sincere congratulations on your historic election as the President of the Republic of Namibia.
Your victory is a reflection of the trust and confidence that the people of Namibia have in your leadership to safeguard the liberation heritage and bring about socio-economic transformation in Namibia.
As you assume your new role, I am confident that the excellent relations between our two countries will continue to grow from strength to strength in the years ahead.
I take this opportunity to assure you of Zimbabwe’s commitment and readiness to deepen and broaden bilateral cooperation with Namibia for the mutual benefit of our two peoples.
I wish you good health, as well as peace and prosperity for the people of Namibia.
Please accept, Your Excellency and Dear Sister, the assurances of my highest consideration.

President Emmerson Mnangagwa said congratulations to Nandi-Ndaitwah, the new President of Namibia. She won the election with over 57% of the votes. Her party, SWAPO, also won seats in the National Assembly. Mnangagwa praised her leadership and said he looks forward to continuing good relations with Namibia. Nandi-Ndaitwah is married to Epaphras Denga Ndaitwah, a former chief of the Namibian Defence Force.

Mnangagwa Congratulates Namibia's New President Nandi-Ndaitwah

The governing South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO) candidate, Ndemupelila Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, has been declared the winner of Namibia’s presidential election, making her the country’s first female president.
Following last week’s contested election, Nandi-Ndaitwah (72) secured over 57% of the votes cast, while her closest rival, Panduleni Itula from the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC), received 26%.
In the National Assembly election, SWAPO won 51 of the 96 seats, while the IPC won 20 seats.
The results were announced on Tuesday evening by Elsie Nghikembua, chairperson of the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN), in the capital city of Windhoek. Said Nghikembua:
<blockquote>
In the presidential elections,15 candidates participated… by the powers vested in me as the chairperson of the ECN, [I] do hereby declare that Nandi-Ndaitwah has been duly elected the president of Namibia.
</blockquote>
Following logistical issues and a three-day extension of polling in some areas, Itula said on Saturday that his party would not recognise the election results, citing allegations of electoral malpractice.
As a result, many opposition parties decided to boycott the results announcement.
SWAPO has been in power in Namibia, a large but sparsely populated southern African country, since 1990, when it gained independence from apartheid South Africa.
Nandi-Ndaitwah, a party stalwart and current vice president, is a trusted leader who has served in high government positions for 25 years.
Nandi-Ndaitwah was promoted to vice president from minister of foreign affairs in February after President Hage Geingob died while in office.
Once sworn in, she will join an exclusive group, as Tanzania’s Samia Suluhu Hassan is currently the only female president in Africa.
Itula, a trained dentist, is regarded as more charismatic than Nandi-Ndaitwah. He reduced SWAPO’s popularity in the 2019 presidential election, lowering its vote share from 87% to 56%.
The IPC has announced plans to seek justice through the courts and has urged people who believe they were unable to vote due to mismanagement by the electoral commission to file reports with the police.

Namibia has elected its first female president, Nandi-Ndaitwah, from the SWAPO party. She won with 57% of the votes. Her rival, Itula, got 26% and is not happy with the results. Some opposition parties boycotted the announcement. Nandi-Ndaitwah has been in government for a long time and is trusted. Once she is sworn in, she will become Africa's second female president. Itula plans to challenge the results in court and urges those who couldn't vote to report to the police.

Nandi-Ndaitwah Elected As Namibia's First Female President

Namibia opposition Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) party, which hopes to end 34 years of rule by the South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO), has rejected the results of Wednesday’s election, whatever the outcome.
On Friday, the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) announced that polling stations that should have closed two days earlier would remain open until Saturday night.
The ECN admitted to “logistical” failures, including a shortage of ballot papers and overheating electronic tablets used to register voters, which left them standing in queues for hours.
From results from just 34 out of 121 constituencies, SWAPO had 56% of the parliamentary vote and 60% of the Presidential vote, according to a tally by the Namibian Sun.
In a statement issued on Saturday, IPC presidential candidate Panduleni Itula, who is standing against SWAPO’s Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, said the party will seek to nullify the election in the courts. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
Tonight, I address you as our nation faces a moment of great uncertainty. Of an unknown total of ballots cast between the 27th and today the 30th of November, only 160,000 have been counted and released.
Thousands of ballots remain locked away, their fate unknown, while polling agents across the country await orders from their superiors regarding ballots under their care to be counted and their results announced.
Polling stations, unlawfully designated as voting centres, continue processing votes under a shroud of illegitimacy.
For the first time in the history of Namibia and possibly in the history of elections, votes are being cast concurrently with vote counting and results publication.
Also, the voting process has been marred by:
<ul>
<li>Widespread disenfranchisement, with voters turned away due to a lack of ballot papers.</li>
<li>Brazen voter suppression, silencing the voices of Namibians yearning for change.</li>
<li>Undermining the Electoral Act and its tenets regarding the entire electoral process.</li>
</ul>
In light of these grave irregularities, I have consulted with the leadership of the IPC, and we have reached an unshakable decision: The IPC will not recognize or accept the outcome of this deeply flawed process. Whether the results declare a win, a runoff, or a loss, we will seek to nullify this election in the courts.
electoral malpractices are glaring, undeniable, and unacceptable. This is not about us. This is not about me. This is about Namibia.
As IPC, we stand firm in our resolve to fight alongside other parties to nullify this election. Namibians deserve the right to freely and fairly choose their leaders.
I call upon all citizens: document the irregularities. Share videos, reports, and evidence with your parties. Let us expose the truth and reclaim the integrity of our democracy.
Together, we stand for Namibia. Together, we fight for justice.
Thank you.

The opposition party in Namibia is not happy with the election results. They say the election was chaotic and unfair. The ruling party has the most votes so far, but there have been many problems with the voting process. The opposition leader wants to go to court to cancel the election. He thinks there were many irregularities and people were not allowed to vote properly. He is asking people to share any evidence of problems with the voting so they can fight for a fair election in Namibia.

Namibia's Main Opposition Presidential Candidate Rejects Outcome Of "Chaotic" Election

Namibians are set to vote for a new president and parliament on November 27, following the death of President Hage Geingob, who was temporarily replaced by his deputy, Nangolo Mbumba.
The election could mark a historic shift in Namibia’s political landscape if the ruling SWAPO party, in power since independence in 1990, loses control of the presidency or parliament for the first time.
The president is directly elected by voters and must secure more than 50 per cent of the vote to win.
Support for SWAPO has declined significantly, from 87 percent in the 2014 presidential election to 56 percent in 2019.
<a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/main-candidates-namibias-presidential-election-2024-11-20/">Reuters</a> has profiled the main candidates running for president below:
<h2>Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah</h2>
Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, 72, is not only the vice president of SWAPO but also the party’s first female presidential candidate.
She joined SWAPO in the 1960s during the party’s fight for Namibia’s independence from apartheid South Africa.
After going into exile with many other party leaders, she served as SWAPO’s representative in central and eastern Africa.
Following her studies in diplomacy in England, Nandi-Ndaitwah returned to Namibia and has held several senior roles in both SWAPO and the government.
These include serving as a minister in the portfolios of international relations, environment, and women’s affairs and child welfare.
<h2>Panduleni Itula</h2>
Panduleni Itula, a 67-year-old politician, secured 29% of the presidential vote as an independent candidate in 2019, marking the best performance by any challenger against SWAPO.
Since then, he has founded a new political party, the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC), which advocates for grassroots participatory democracy and anti-corruption. The IPC also plans to contest parliamentary seats.
Itula was a SWAPO youth leader during the fight for independence and was imprisoned by the apartheid regime.
After his release, he moved to England, where he studied and worked as a dentist for over three decades before returning to Namibia in 2013.
<h2>McHenry Venaani</h2>
McHenry Venaani is the leader of Namibia’s largest opposition party in parliament, the Popular Democratic Movement (PDM), which holds 16 out of 96 elected seats.
Venaani, 47, studied law and became the country’s youngest member of parliament in 2003.
Despite the PDM strengthening its parliamentary presence in the 2019 election, Venaani came a distant third in the presidential race with only 5% of votes.
<h2>Bernadus Swartbooi</h2>
Bernadus Swartbooi, 47, is the leader of the Landless People’s Movement (LPM), a progressive party advocating for land redistribution and restorative justice.
Swartbooi founded the LPM in 2017 after losing his job as deputy minister of land reform and leaving SWAPO.
LPM has four seats in parliament. Swartbooi won 3% of votes in the 2019 presidential election.
<h2>Job Amupanda</h2>
Job Amupanda, 37, is a former SWAPO youth leader who fell out with the party and founded a leftist political movement called Affirmative Repositioning in 2014. 
Like the LPM, the party focuses on land reform and redistribution of foreign-owned land.
Amupanda served as mayor of the capital, Windhoek, in 2021. He is also an associate professor of political science at the University of Namibia.

Nandi-Ndaitwah is SWAPO's first female presidential candidate. Itula founded the Independent Patriots for Change party. Venaani leads the Popular Democratic Movement. Swartbooi leads the Landless People's Movement. Amupanda founded Affirmative Repositioning. Each candidate has different ideas for the future of Namibia.

Here Are The Main Candidates In Namibia's Presidential Election

Namibia’s Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah could become the country’s first female president if she wins the presidential election on Wednesday, November 27.
At least 1.4 million people, or about half of the population, have registered to vote in the elections, with 15 political parties running for president and seats in the National Assembly.
Results from special early polls held for Namibia’s foreign missions, seamen and security services announced by the Electoral Commission of Namibia this month indicate that Nandi-Ndaitwah and her party, the South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO), are in the lead.
SWAPO has governed Namibia since its independence from South Africa’s apartheid minority government in 1990.
In 2019, SWAPO lost its two-thirds majority in the National Assembly for the first time since 1994, largely due to allegations of corruption and money laundering in the Namibian fishing industry.
Political analyst Henning Melber believes SWAPO and Nandi-Ndaitwah must heed the 2019 election results as a warning.
Nandi-Ndaitwah (71) has promised to create more jobs and tackle the 20% unemployment rate for young people and graduates, pledging to spend approximately 85 billion Namibian dollars ($4.7 billion) over the next five years to create more than 500,000 jobs.
Issues affecting women, including reproductive rights, equal pay, and healthcare, are likely to be significant for voters.
If elected, Nandi-Ndaitwah would follow in the footsteps of Liberia’s Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Malawi’s Joyce Banda, and Catherine Samba-Panza of the Central African Republic as a female president in Africa.
SWAPO will face competition from the Independent Patriots for Change, led by former dentist Panduleni Itula, and university professor Job Amupanda’s Affirmative Repositioning party.
Political parties contesting the elections wrapped up their campaigns with final rallies this weekend.
Elections in southern Africa this year have delivered ground-breaking changes to the region’s political landscape.
In South Africa, the ANC lost its 30-year parliamentary majority, while Botswana’s Democratic Party was unseated after 58 years in power.
Disputed election results in Mozambique, which saw the ruling FRELIMO party declared the winner, have led to ongoing protests that have seen at least 30 people killed.
