A political party based on Christian principles was launched at the Omakulukuma settlement in Ondangwa.

The Body of Christ Party targets Christians of all denominations and strives to take their voice to parliament.

A new political party, "Body of Christ," has registered with the Electoral Commission of Namibia.

The party's leader, Bishop Festus Thomas, says his movement is about respecting and upholding biblical principles while also focusing on the family unit and traditional Namibian and African values.
