The Body of Christ Party (BCP) has launched its manifesto and announced nominated candidates for the National Assembly at Ondangwa.

BCP President Festus Thomas outlined the party's pillar as a guide for the party's actions and decisions to lead Namibia to prosperity and a bright future when voted to power.

BCP is determined to promote peace and stability, as Christians have allegedly been without a voice and are denied land while their churches are demolished and closed down.

The party manifesto is designed to address key issues among them economic growth, education, healthcare, security, agriculture, and land reform.

In the manifesto, the BCP is demanding Bible studies be reintroduced back in the education curriculum.

On corruption, they declared to implement strong protection measures focussing on transparency and accountability at all levels of government.

On land reform, they want to tackle historical injustices and ensure equitable access to land for all Namibians.

On security matters, the BCP promises to strengthen law enforcement to protect citizens from crime, while on agriculture, the party promises to come up with innovative ideas to secure sufficient food production for all Namibians.

On the occasion, Thomas announced a list of 63 names of their nominated candidates for the National Assembly, whom he said were selected through a transparent and rigorous process representing the values and principles of the party.

He called all BCP members and Christians to support their candidates in the upcoming election so that they can build a Namibia free from corruption, inequality, and injustices.
