Namibians go to the polls

Voting began today, Friday in Namibia's presidential and legislative elections, in a vote that is expected to see liberation party the South West People's Organisation (SWAPO) retain power.

Voters at Katutura township, outside the capital Windhoek, formed longed lines before daybreak, including some first time "born free" voters, those born after independence in 1990.




"It's a rich country with poor people, so I hope there is more balance", said 43-year-old Elias while waiting to cast his vote.
