The leadership of the National Unity Democratic Organisation (Nudo) called off the party’s elective congress, which was underway in Windhoek on Saturday.
Party president Ester Muinjangue confirmed this in a media statement.
“An urgent meeting was convened tonight, in line with Article 20 of our constitution, to discuss the scenario of chaos and anarchy currently prevailing at the Ramatex venue, where we were supposed to have our long overdue congress,” she said.
Muinjangue said after considering “all issues at the party’s disposal”, it was decided to postpone the elective congress to an unknown date.
“We plead with our party members to remain calm, while the leadership will deliberate and announce the way forward,” she said.
Earlier on Saturday, party secretary general Joseph Kauandenge said there were delays in the congress owing to internal disputes.
