Talks between President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah and the Swanu of Namibia Party focused on several national issues, including the N$100 increase in the old age pension announced in the recent national budget, during today's courtesy meeting at State House.

The ongoing infighting in SWANU of Namibia has taken another turn as the party's 8ste Laan branch has proceeded to hold congress on its own. 

Swanu of Namibia's Party President Dr. Tangeni Iijambo tabled a motion to discuss the enforcement of the drought relief programme by training specialists whose activities are related to the environment.
