President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah's two sons have denied allegations made by Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) leader Panduleni Itula.

Dr. Itula claimed that the duo are involved in the oil industry and alleged the First Family is positioning itself to benefit from the sector.

The 3rd Junior National Council session commenced today.

Officially opening the session, Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah urged the young MPs to engage passionately in their discussions, emphasising that their contributions would shape the future of the country.

President Nangolo Mbumba has advocated for educational exchanges and training between Namibia and Finland, particularly in the new oil and gas industries. 

His comments came during a meeting with a parliamentary delegation from Finland at the State House.

Namibia could capitalize on its existing bilateral agreements with Angola to acquire the skills and lessons it needs to fast-track the development of its oil industry.

Mines and Energy Minister Tom Alweendo says such a move would boost the economies of both nations.
