President Nangolo Mbumba has reaffirmed Namibia's commitment to strengthening partnerships with the USA.

Dr. Mbumba, in a statement, extended a congratulatory message to the US President-elect, Donald Trump, on Wednesday, further commending him for earning the trust of the American people.

''On behalf of the government and the people of Namibia, I offer our sincere congratulations on the victory of President-elect Donald Trump. The election of President Trump reflects the confidence of the American people in the ability of President Trump to lead the USA to greater heights,'' Mbumba said.

Trump garnered 277 electoral votes against Democratic Party candidate Kamala Harris' 224 electoral votes, making him the 47th President of the US in Tuesday's polls.

President Mbumba emphasised that the Namibian government is eager to work with the Trump administration to foster peace, prosperity, and shared growth.

He says Namibia looks forward to stronger bilateral relations and mutual progress in the areas of commerce and socio-economic development.
