The Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) has said it remains strong and unwavering in its mission despite the defection of its three senior members to the Swapo Party. 

IPC's Erongo Chairperson, Alosius Kangulu, addressed the media on Friday at Walvis Bay .

Delegates to the Swapo Party 6th Extraordinary Congress have elected Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah as the party president, following the death of Dr. Hage Geingob last year, leaving the position vacant.

The National Unity Democratic Organisation (NUDO) President Dr. Utjiua Muinjangue stated that the party did not register a presidential candidate for the upcoming election because they recognise their limited chances of success.

Muinjangue made these remarks during the party's star rally in Okakarara.

The ongoing infighting in SWANU of Namibia has taken another turn as the party's 8ste Laan branch has proceeded to hold congress on its own.
