The Electoral Commission of Namibia says the preparation for the Guinas Constituency by-election in the Oshikoto Region is on course as per the electoral schedule.

The Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) has filed notices against the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN), alleging widespread irregularities in the recent Presidential and National Assembly elections. 

The Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) says it is prepared to provide answers to questions emanating from the November 27th national elections as well as the inspection of non-sensitive election materials.

The inspection of voting material used during the National Assembly election held last month continues at the Electoral Commission of Namibia’s headquarters.

ECN Commissioner Pius Iikwambi says the process is proceeding smoothly so far and expressed confidence they will be done by 17:00 today.

The inspection process of material used in the National Assembly Elections kicked off at the Electoral Commission of Namibia headquarters in Windhoek this morning.

The Electoral Court is set to hear arguments from the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) and the Landless People's Movement (LPM) on Friday.

Registered political parties and prospective independent candidates have been reminded that the nomination process for the Guinas Constituency by-election in the Oshikoto Region has commenced.

The Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) has expressed alarm over reports that the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) is summoning IPC polling agents to warehouses or police stations for the purpose of reopening ballot boxes from the recent elections.

The Electoral Commission of Namibia has commended Namibians for participating in this year's elections peacefully and in numbers, which affirms the country's democratic maturity.

Residents of the Otjiwarongo and Grootfontein constituencies in the Otjozondjupa Region can expect to vote for their new constituency councillors in separate by-elections before June 2025.
