She said as a team, they commit to implement the Swapo party manifesto, the Harambee Prosperity Plan and all plans that the government has put together to improve the lives of ordinary Namibians.

“Let us defend Swapo party from the abuse of the naysayers, let us fight to defend the peace and the stability we are enjoying as a country. Fighting for what is right is worth it, fighting for the Swapo party is worth it,” she stated.
