"Namibia's Interim President Denies Running in Upcoming Election as Hage Geingob Passes Away"

Nangolo Mbumba, who has taken over as interim president of Namibia following Hage Geingob's death, has stated that he has no intention of running in the upcoming elections. This means that Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, the current vice president and SWAPO's candidate, will remain on the ballot and could become Namibia's first female president if elected. Mbumba emphasized that he only ever aspired to be a school principal and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve as president. Namibia is also making strides in green energy, aiming to become a leader in the global green economy.
