Namibian President And Other Leaders In Violation Of The Constitution

NEXT year, Namibia will hold its fifth democratic elections, the fourth after political independence in March 1990.
This time around, they will be held under the most volatile conditions thus far, accompanied by the spread of fear, intimidation and political violence.
The spectre of political arrogance on the part of the ruling party and intolerance sweeping across the land is one of the most frightening of our time.
The three elections that Namibia held previously were characterised by relative peace, and to his credit, Founding President Sam Nujoma remained relatively above the fray characterised by insults and intolerance that seems to have invaded the political leadership of the ruling party today.
