Namibia on Wednesday held its eighth presidential and National Assembly elections.

A total of 15 candidates were competing in the presidential elections, with 21 political parties and associations vying for 96 parliamentary seats.

Among the prominent presidential candidates are Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah of the South West Africa People's Organization (SWAPO), Bernadus Swartbooi of the Landless People's Movement, and Panduleni Itula of the Independent Patriots for Change.

SWAPO has been Namibia's ruling party since the nation gained independence in 1990. 

In the 2019 elections, the late President Hage Geingob led SWAPO to victory, securing over 56 percent of the National Assembly vote.
