Namibia will have a new official opposition party in the National Assembly by the end of next week.

The Landless People's Movement (LPM) missed its target of having 71% youth representation in the parliamentary list and has instead reached only 45%.
 
LPM announced its list of 92 candidates for the National Assembly at the electoral convention held over the weekend in Windhoek. 

Dr. Panduleni Itula, leader of the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) and presidential candidate, has announced that his name will not appear on the party’s parliamentary list for the upcoming elections.
