Swapo calls showgoers to its stand at the WHK Show

WINDHOEK – The Swapo Party is calling on the public to visit the party's stand at the Windhoek Agricultural and Industrial Show underway in the capital.

The Swapo Party is participating in the Windhoek Show which kicked off on Friday, for the first time.

The party’s acting mobilisation officer for the Hochland Park branch, Christian Maketo, told Nampa that the turnout of visitors at their stand is overwhelming.

“We have registered a lot of new members and expect to register more at the end of the show,” he said, adding that the “born-frees” are very interested in the Swapo Party.

Maketo also encouraged showgoers to register in order to vote in the upcoming elections slated for 27 and 28 November this year.

Apart from providing information about the Swapo Party, Maketo indicated that they are also selling the party's T-shirts, caps and attire with the party colours blue, red and green.

While the Swapo Party is selling their party attire, the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance (DTA) of Namibia, which is also participating in the Windhoek Show, is distributing their party T-shirts for free to its members.

These are the only two parties among the 13 registered parties in the country, participating in the Windhoek Show.

“We are also providing information on our recently launched web site,” said Maketo.

He said the web site www. swapoparty.org is aimed at making the party available to interact with the public at their demand within and beyond the borders of the country, and as far as the Internet highway takes them.

Through the web site, the party intends to remain available to account for their actions, and explain the party's policies and programmes, and as such, enhance democracy and good governance.
