In the country's fourth elections since independence citizens across Namibia will be electing a president and parliament on Friday and Saturday.

President Hifikepunye Pohamba and his ruling Swapo party are expected to remain in power, but they face a fresh challenge from a break away party, the Rally for Democracy and Progress, headed by Hidipo Hamutenya.
