Mbumba Presidency:(…steady, laidback and reassuring - analysts)
As the countdown towards the end of President Dr. Nangolo Mbumba’s term as Head of State begins, analysts suggest that his administration will be remembered for its steady approach to governance and laid-back demeanour.
Political analyst Natji Tjirera notes that Mbumba, despite his rather enigmatic persona, assumed leadership following the passing of the country’s most flamboyant and well-loved president. As such, Tjirera asserts, Mbumba faced the challenge of filling very big shoes in the public domain while also steering the Namibian ship forward.
