 Market Chairman Clears Heaps of Sands To Decongest Market Roads  By Juliana Nwachukwu  In his bid to support Governor Charles Soludo's effort on roads construction and decongestion, the  Chairman of Sokoto Road Market, Chief Emeka Mbachu,  has decongested heaps of sands at sokoto Road that blocked the access road to Onitsha Main Market which made it impossible for passers by, motorist, even trucks to have their ways. Speaking with newsmen after the decongestion, Chief Mbachu stated that the heaps of sand have been there for almost two months now without any hope of parking them out. According to him,"I decongested it because it is an eyesore, I can't imagine seeing people complaining about it, it has being there for long thereby blocking the access roads for vehicles, trucks which transport loads to and from the market. It was a left over by the construction company that worked on that road. "So I singlehandedly did it by contacting the Operation Clean and Heal...

 Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah is sworn in as Namibia’s first female leader


Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah was sworn in as Namibia’s first female president on Friday, reaching the highest office in her land nearly 60 years after she joined the liberation movement fighting for independence from apartheid South Africa, AP reported.


The 72-year-old Nandi-Ndaitwah won an election in November to become one of just a handful of female leaders in Africa after the likes of Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia, Joyce Banda of Malawi and Samia Suluhu Hassan of Tanzania.


Sirleaf and Banda, now former leaders of their countries, and current Tanzania President Hassan all attended Nandi-Ndaitwah’s inauguration.


Nandi-Ndaitwah’s swearing-in coincided with the 35th anniversary of Namibia’s independence, but the ceremony was switched from a soccer stadium where thousands were due to attend to the official presidential office because of heavy rain.


The new president made her pledge to defend, uphold and support the constitution in front of other visiting leaders from South Africa, Zambia, Congo, Botswana, Angola and Kenya.


Nandi-Ndaitwah succeeds Nangolo Mbumba, who had stood in as Namibia’s president since February 2024 following the death in office of President Hage Geingob. Nandi-Ndaitwah was promoted to vice president following Geingob’s death.


Nandi-Ndaitwah is just the fifth president of Namibia, a sparsely populated nation in southwestern Africa which was a German colony until the end of World War I and then won independence from South Africa in 1990 after decades of struggle and a guerilla war against South African forces that lasted more than 20 years.


“The task facing me as the fifth president of the Republic of Namibia is to preserve the gains of our independence on all fronts and to ensure that the unfinished agenda of economic and social advancement of our people is carried forward with vigor and determination to bring about shared, balanced prosperity for all,” Nandi-Ndaitwah said.


Nandi-Ndaitwah is a veteran of the South West Africa People’s Organization, or SWAPO, which led Namibia’s fight for independence and has been its ruling party ever since.


She was the ninth of 13 children, her father was an Anglican clergyman, and she attended a mission school that she also later taught in. She joined SWAPO as a teenager in the 1960s and spent time in exile in Zambia, Tanzania, the former Soviet Union and the United Kingdom in the 1970s and 1980s.


She had been a lawmaker in Namibia since 1990 and was the foreign minister before being appointed vice president.
