President Nandi-Ndaitwah Asserts Namibia’s Oil Wealth Will Serve Its Citizens

In a recent public address, President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah firmly declared that Namibia’s oil resources will not be misused or exploited by outsiders. Instead, she emphasized that the country’s petroleum wealth will be utilized solely for the benefit of the Namibian people.

As Namibia steps into the era of oil and gas production, the President highlighted the importance of handling this developing sector with vigilance and foresight. “This is a new industry,” she said, “and it demands careful oversight to ensure it uplifts all citizens.”

To guarantee transparency and national interest, President Nandi-Ndaitwah announced that the responsibility for supervising and directing the oil and gas sector will rest directly within the Office of the President. This move signals the government’s commitment to ensuring that Namibia’s natural assets lead to broad-based development and long-term prosperity.
