Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 35250, member: 636"] Swapo landed itself in hot water as it held its 65th birthday bash. Political watchers are calling out the party for failing to address major citizen needs. Housing shortages continue to plague ordinary people despite decades of promises. The liberation movement that once fought for freedom now struggles to deliver basic services to Namibians. Government leaders claim they have made progress, but citizens tell a different story. Unemployment remains sky high, and economic opportunities look slim for young people. Some party members admit they have fallen short of their ambitious development plans. Critics argue that inherited apartheid systems continue blocking meaningful transformation. Party youth leader Ephraim Nekongo tried spinning the narrative about ongoing achievements. He highlighted investments in education, healthcare, and infrastructure as proof of progress. The party wants to create more opportunities for youth and diversify the economic landscape. Renewable energy, tourism, and agriculture appear to be key focus areas moving forward. Party president Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah acknowledged that work remains unfinished. She called for party members to stay united and keep pushing for social change. The party has set aside a massive budget of N$85 billion to tackle manifesto promises. Their goal remains transforming Namibian society and creating pathways for all citizens. Despite criticism, the party continues to believe in its potential for national development. They see themselves as the primary vehicle for positive social transformation. Hope and trust remain core values as Swapo looks toward its next chapter. The road ahead looks challenging, but the party remains committed to its founding principles. [/QUOTE]
