Sam Nujoma, Namibia's founding father and first president, passed away at 95, leaving behind a legacy of independence and national unity.

Namibia has elected its first female president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, amidst political changes in southern Africa.

Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah won the Namibian presidential election outright with 57% of the vote, avoiding a runoff amid claims of electoral flaws by the opposition.

Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah's election as Namibia's first female president highlights a significant political shift, despite opposition claims of electoral irregularities.

Namibia may elect its first female president amid declining support for the ruling party, SWAPO.

Nandi-Ndaitwah becomes Namibia's first female president, marking a historic leadership change on the country's 35th independence day.

Voters in southern Africa are increasingly rejecting legacy parties that once fought colonialism due to rising social and economic issues.

Support for ruling parties in southern Africa is declining, but fragmented opposition within countries like Namibia helps sustain power for parties like SWAPO.
