A Zanu PF delegation, headed by Secretary for the War Veterans League Douglas Mahiya and Deputy Secretary for Commissariat Webster Shamu, recently attended the grand finale of the SWAPO Party’s star rally in Namibia’s Khomas region, held at the Sam Nujoma Stadium.

The event was also graced by a coalition of regional and international revolutionary leaders, including representatives from South Africa’s African National Congress (ANC), Tanzania’s Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), and Mozambique’s FRELIMO. Delegations from Cuba, Russia, China, Venezuela, and Saharawi were also present.

“This gathering of revolutionary parties emphasized our collective determination to protect the legacies of our liberation struggles and to advance economic transformation and political sovereignty across Africa,” Zanu PF remarked in a statement following the rally.

In addition to attending the rally, the Zanu PF delegation met with the SWAPO Party candidate, Vice President Cde Nandi Ndaitwah Netumbo Ndemupelila, at a local hotel in Windhoek.

Namibia is set to hold its Presidential and National Assembly elections on November 27, and there are growing concerns surrounding the integrity of the electoral process.

With the country heading to the polls, the possibility of election rigging has sparked fears among opposition groups and international observers.

Critics are particularly concerned about the involvement of foreign allies, which some view as an attempt to sway the election results in favor of SWAPO.

The involvement of Zanu PF, a party with a controversial history of electoral manipulation in Zimbabwe, has intensified these concerns.

Observers fear that the presence of such a delegation could signal the introduction of tactics aimed at influencing Namibia’s elections, raising alarms about fairness and transparency.
