The new leader of Namibia wants everyone to work together as one team. Ms. Nandi-Ndaitwah talked about Namibia and Zimbabwe being united like family. During their morning chat in Windhoek, she told The Herald newspaper that farming will become super important for their economy. Her country plans to learn from Zimbabwe and already works with Zimbabwean farmers through special training programs.
As Namibia's first woman president, she aims to keep the nation peaceful and safe. She also wants to ensure people have enough food, create more jobs, and help women succeed. Her plans come straight from what her political party, Swapo, promised voters during elections. These include better schools, hospitals, farm systems, and land for more citizens.
She believes that Zimbabwe knows a lot about growing food, and her government can learn many useful lessons from them. When asked about problems facing southern African countries, like terrorism in Mozambique and fighting in Congo, she pushed for talking things out. She firmly stated that people having fights must sit down together because violence never fixes anything.
Ms. Nandi-Ndaitwah promised to keep pushing for men and women to be treated the same way. She felt happy seeing more men becoming supporters of equal rights. She mentioned a European Union program about masculinity that teaches equality between genders. Her leadership marks a historic moment for Namibia as she prepares to take office.
