Defence and Veteran's Affairs Minister Frans Kapofi has called on Swapo Party members and supporters at the Ondera farm and settlement to vote for Moses ||Khumub, the party's candidate for the upcoming by-election for the Guinas constituency next week.

Kapofi, who spoke at a mini rally at the Ondera farm, called on Swapo Party members there not to allow any other political party to take over the Guinas constituency. 

Voting for its candidate will allow the ruling party to continue with its developmental projects and programmes aimed at changing the lives of the Ondera community, he said.

He then called on the community to produce food at the farm, which is currently idle, to minimise dependency on drought relief foods.

Production came to a standstill at the project due to a water pipe bust in October last year. The ploughing tractor has been inoperable for eight months and is currently undergoing repair in Grootfontein.

Oshikoto Swapo Party Coordinator Armas Amukwiyu said the Guinas by-election campaign will be decorated with mini rallies and door-to-door meetings, which will guarantee the party victory.

Swapo candidate for the Guinas by-election, Moses ||Khumub, said if voted to lead that constituency, he will come up with innovative ideas to address problems facing the Ondera community and Guinas constituency at large.
