THE Ministry of Information and Communication Technology has called on the Namibian public to support Miss Namibia 2025, Johanna Swartbooi, and to refrain from directing any form of discrimination towards her.
“The Ministry strongly condemns any form of tribalism or discriminatory behaviour directed towards her. Such actions stand in direct opposition to the values of unity, dignity, and national pride that we uphold as a nation. We call on all Namibians to rally behind Miss Swartbooi and celebrate her achievements as she represents our nation,” the ministry’s Acting Executive Director, Linda Aipinge, said.
She emphasised that the Ministry, through the Nationhood and National Pride Programme, fully supports Swartbooi and is working closely with relevant stakeholders to ensure that she has the necessary backing as she represents Namibia on the international stage.
“As a people, we must remember that we are Namibian first, united beyond tribe, culture, and background. Let us continue to support her wholeheartedly and remind her that her country stands firmly behind her,” Aipinge added.
