Namibia votes for new president and parliament DW 11/27/2024
Briefly

Namibia's Vice-President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah is in the race to become the first female president, competing against Panduleni Itula from the IPC, as voters head to the polls.
With around 1.4 million eligible voters, Namibia's presidential election could see SWAPO's Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah capitalizing on her experience to address urgent issues like youth unemployment.
Recent electoral trends show a decline in SWAPO's support from approximately 87% in 2014 to 56% in 2019, indicating a volatile political landscape.
Political analysts suggest a potential second round of voting may occur if no candidate receives over half of the votes in the initial round.
