Statement by His Excellency Dr Nangolo Mbumba, President of the Republic of Namibia, on the Occasion of the Official Opening of the 9th Session of the 7th Parliament, 6 February 2024, Windhoek

Ladies and Gentlemen, Good Afternoon.

I am honoured to join you at the official opening of the 9th Session of the 7th Parliament, in accordance with the longstanding practice established since independence.

The assumption of this legislative year is taking place at the time of the loss of our President, H.E Dr Hage G. Geingob on 4 February. He is one of the Founders of the Namibian Constitution, having chaired the Constituent Assembly which drafted our Constitution. He served, as the First Prime Minister and Third President of our Republic. Our country has therefore lost a national icon, a Hero, a committed and dedicated leader who did not only contribute to the building of the modern Namibian nation, but has made durable footprints in Namibia, the African continent and globally in all the spheres of human endeavour. May his soul rest in eternal peace. (Let us please observe a minute of silence).

As Namibians, we should therefore pick up from where he left and re-dedicate ourselves to the noble ideas of unity and inclusivity for all our citizens in the Namibian House.

Statement by His Excellency Dr Hage G. Geingob, President of the Republic of Namibia on the Occasion of the New Year 2024, Sunday, 31 December 2023

Fellow Namibians,

When I look back to the past 12 months, which have defined the Year of Revival, I am pleased with the giant steps we have made as Namibians towards our collective prosperity. We are on course in our ambition to leave Namibia in better shape, come March 2025. The foundations of the Namibian House have been strengthened. Namibia is on course for a sustainable economic revival.

Many Namibians will recall the difficulties we experienced over the past years, starting with a global commodity crisis in 2015, which led to protracted declines in Government revenue, affecting the implementation of the ambitious development and infrastructure manifesto the Government had planned to implement in the noble pursuit of prosperity for all.

Many Namibians will also recall that between 2016-2019, the country experienced the most severe droughts to be recorded in Namibian history, forcing Government to spend in excess of 3 billion Namibian Dollars on drought relief to the affected sectors of our population.

SUBJECT: NAMIBIA CONDEMNS ESCALATING VIOLENCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST

The Government of the Republic of Namibia is gravely concerned and condemns the ongoing escalation of violence between Israel and Palestine in the Gaza Strip, which has led to the loss of precious lives of both Palestinians and Israelis.

Namibia calls on Israel to cease its attacks and refrain from engaging in provocative acts
against the Palestinian people and to respect international humanitarian law.

Namibia continues to support diplomatic efforts aimed at reaching a lasting peace solution leading to a two-state solution along the 1967 Israeli border with East Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am pleased to convene this press conference to provide an account of the mission I recently led to the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting, in Davos Switzerland in May of this year.

I accepted an invitation forwarded to the Presidency from the Forum, to showcase Namibia’s innovative approach on its attempt to kick-start Namibia’s economic recovery by using its renewable energy potential to contribute to a global just energy transition. While there, the delegation made the most of the global platform to showcase our Country’s attractive investment destination and its peaceful and orderly environment.

My own agenda was full and started with a welcoming dinner on the evening of Monday the 23rd of May, which was attended by various Heads of State.

Tuesday kicked off with a session focusing on promoting intercontinental trade which was attended by Presidents from Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Malawi and also attended by the Vice President of Tanzania and the Prime Minister of Ivory Coast. This was followed by Namibia’s Green Hydrogen Session at the Namibia House which was fully booked, while many walking in and sitting on the stair cases and over 400 people online.
