The newly appointed Prime Minister, Elijah Ngurare, underscored the importance of unity in whatever Namibia and its people will be undertaking.

Dr. Ngurare, who served in various portfolios including as Swapo Party Youth League Secretary and Deputy Executive Director in the Ministry of Agriculture, has said he will use the experience gained in executing his duties as head of government business.

Ngurare described his appointment as humbling, emphasising that the newly appointed members of the executive branch of government have an unwavering duty to deliver. 

He stated that he will work hand in hand with the President to execute her and her government's mandate.

Dr. Ngurare also pointed out that the pillars of youth empowerment, informal settlement development, rural development, and genuine economic empowerment will remain at the forefront of government business.

"This is fortunately what is contained in the elections manifesto; it is also what is contained in what Her Excellency was saying, so what we would do is to ensure that all 121 constituencies feel the impact of the marching orders that H.E. was giving here tonight, and we must ensure that our villages, rural areas, and local authorities of any kind, they must be able to get services, but to be able to achieve this, first and foremost, we must unite; let there be unity, and unity will be the common denominator that will enable us to reach our goals as contemplated in our manifesto as well as in our constitution."

The newly appointed Cabinet of Namibia will have its first meeting on Tuesday.
