Namibia's Electoral Commission told losing candidates to accept voter decisions after the regional council and local authority races wrapped up. Chairperson Elsie Nghikembua said unsuccessful politicians need to respect what people chose and keep helping build the country instead of sulking about results. Voter participation hit 40.6% for regional councils and 36.3% for local authority spots.
Nghikembua congratulated winners and pushed them to actually fix the problems their communities face. She encouraged defeated candidates to stay involved in national progress since everyone needs to pitch in for the country to move forward.
