If Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah wins Wednesday's presidential election, she might succeed as Namibia's first female the country's leader.
Nearly fifty percent of the population, or at least 1.4 million individuals, are registered to cast their votes in the elections. Fifteen political parties are vying for positions in the National Assembly and the presidency.
According to the results of special early polls conducted for Namibia's security forces, seafarers, and foreign missions, which were released by the Namibian Electoral Commission this month, Nandi-Ndaitwah along with her party, the South West Africa People's Organization, or SWAPO, are leading.
Ever since Nambia gained her freedom from south african apartheid minority party in the year 1990 , SWAPO has been in charge of ruling.
