HIGHS AND LOWS: A man hoists a Swapo flag on an electrical pole as campaigns intensify ahead of the November elections. This photo, posted on Swapo presidential candidate Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah’s account on X, sparked spirited debates on social media over the weekend. First, it was argued that hoisting flags on electrical poles is a violation of safety laws, while the presence of a barefooted child in the background has provoked talks about the high levels of poverty in the country. The beer bottle in the photo also compromised the sober message the ruling party was trying to convey, some argued. PHOTO: SWAPO PARTY
