The National Unity Democratic Organisation (NUDO) wrapped up its campaign with strong promises for the future, focusing on education and health reforms.

One of the key promises made by NUDO was to ensure that students accepted at higher learning institutions would automatically qualify for scholarships or loans.

The party emphasised that all students need to do is provide a statement of their results, and they will receive the financial support they need for their studies.

NUDO member Vetaruhe Kandorozu, who is among the top on the National Assembly list, also spoke about the party's plans to improve the health sector.

"No one will be expected to do anything at any health facility, as all health services will be free at state hospitals and clinics. Clinics will operate for hours, and nurses will be paid their overtime. Each health facility will be equipped with ambulances and medical equipment. No one will be referred to private hospitals from the state as health services will be of equal and better quality."

The party's Secretary General, Joseph Kauandenge, raised a concern about the increasing desire of many individuals to become presidents of political parties.

He questioned why the focus seemed to have shifted from serving the people to seeking power.

"The wind of change is blowing through our African continent; it has blown in Botswana, where there was opposition to getting into government. What is wrong with our Namibian political leaders? Why does everyone want to become president of a political party? What has happened to the noble ideals of serving our people? Where can we best serve our people? We can only serve our people best if we combine efforts and support a presidential candidate for that person to be able to lead us down a different path. So let's go and vote for the Nudo party; let's go and make sure that we go back to parliament to represent our people in parliament."
