WINDHOEK, 04 DEC (NAMPA) - The president of Tanzania, Samia Hassan, has taken to social media to congratulate Namibia’s president-elect, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah.
“On behalf of the government and the people of the United Republic of Tanzania, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Her Excellency Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, president-elect of the Republic of Namibia, on your historic victory in the 2024 Namibian general election,” Hassan wrote on her various social media platforms.
She added that she is looking forward to working with Nandi-Ndaitwah, “in strengthening the all-weather fraternal bonds and historical ties between Tanzania and Namibia.”
Nandi-Ndaitwah will be sworn in as president in March 2025, becoming Namibia’s first female president. Namibia made history on Tuesday by electing the country’s first female president, 34 years after independence. Namibians went to the polls from 27 to 30 November 2024.
Hassan is also Tanzania’s first female president, having taken over from her predecessor, John Magufuli, who passed away in 2021.
