Affirmative Repositioning leader Professor Job Amupanda has called for the National Assembly to address five questions concerning its legislative powers, parliamentary procedures and compliance with the Constitution.
In his notice of motion, Amupanda questions why the executive has a Cabinet Committee on Legislation while the National Assembly has no dedicated committee responsible for legislation.
He also challenges what he describes as the absence of legislation originating from the National Assembly that has been passed and brought into operation since independence.
On private members’ bills, Amupanda questions why elected MPs must obtain authorisation from an unelected official, arguing that Article 60(2) of the Constitution allows such bills to be introduced if supported by one-third of National Assembly members.
He further raises concerns about the absence of laws and parliamentary directives governing the appointment of the Secretary of the National Assembly, as provided for under Article 52 of the Constitution.
The motion also questions the Attorney General’s role in representing the National Assembly in legal disputes, given that Article 87(b) identifies the Attorney General as the principal legal adviser to the President and government.
Professor Amupanda further questions why local authority bylaws and regulations have allegedly not been tabled in the National Assembly, as required under Article 111(5) of the Constitution.
He argues that the five issues raise concerns about the House’s ability to discharge its constitutional responsibilities and calls for answers and remedial measures to ensure compliance with the Constitution.

Unlike our Corrupt Regime Europeans take their TAX PAYERS Money SERIOUSLY. Why Train NANSO CHILDREN on how to EAT and LAUNDER European MONEY at Political Events? Kotokela okulya ohambo nomatenga gayo!
BREAKING NEWS ... The National Assembly on Tuesday approved the controversial petroleum bill after securing 50 votes. This comes despite most of opposition parties walking out in protest. Only the Namibia Economic Freedom Fighters party took part in the voting. Update: Martin Endjala

We CANNOT accept as a country to have the CORRUPT recruit 16 and 20 year old into their Corruption. Namibia secured Research FUNDING about N$ 140 Million from the EU @europeanunion through the EU Erasmus+ Program, called Project SHINE. The children of NANSO organized a Congress to be addressed by President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah. To organize this meeting, the University of Namibia @unam_na LAUNDERED about N$ 140 000 from the EU Money and paid DIRECTLY into the NANSO Children’s bank Account for this CONGRESS. It’s not CLEAR if the President was warned that she will be at a High Table with sweets and chips from LAUNDERED EU Funds resulting in instead sending Minister Charles Mubita to attend. It is SHOCKING and AMAZING how UNAM and the NANSO children successfully SIPHONED EU Funds for Political Singing events given that EU Research & Project Funds have strict Rules. I have already ASKED @EUinNamibia Ambassador to Namibia H.E Ana Beatriz Martins to investigate this CORRUPTION and this investigation has STARTED. The NEW Council of the University of Namibia (UNAM), is hereby INSTRUCTED to urgently Investigate this matter and direct Freezing of further payments to anyone from this project while investigating is ongoing. The Minister of Education Dr. Sanet Steenkamp, you are called upon to seriously TAKE NOTE of this Corruption and realize its damage to Namibia’s international research funding and academic cooperation! Our Children, including those in NANSO need MENTORING, HELP and PROTECTION and not RECRUITMENT IN CORRUPTION. I expect swift action on this matter from ALL OF YOU as I have many many many matters to attend to‼️‼️
This reminds me of November 2020 when @ArNamibia camped infront of the residence of Chief Justice, demanding for public interviews of judges.
AR Protestors shared their food, drinks and fire with the Police Officers that were “guarding” 😅.
These guys are also people working
I wonder which lawyer is going to be cross-examining Mbeki at the Khampepe Commission.
The last time Adv. Paul Hoffman cross-examined Mbeki at the Seriti Commission, Hoffman was reduced to tears and blamed the suicide of his daughter for being confrontational and condescending when he couldn’t get concessions from Mbeki.
Mbeki has already dismissed the allegations that he interfered with work of the NPA to prosecute apartheid criminals.
So far, not a single witness has adduced evidence that indeed Mbeki interfered with the work of the NPA.

ANOTHER ONE, ANOTHER ONE | You would think that our country is a MOVIE. On Monday, 12 October 2026, a MAN accessed the PRESIDENTIAL LOUNGE, passing through all Security of the VIP Terminal at Eros Airport, and went to Seat on the sofas 🛋️ 🛋️ of the President and enjoyed the PRESIDENTIAL Salami, Biltong and nuts 🥜(oumbudufukwa waMeekulu). They are HIDING IT and don’t want the Public to know. It is the SAME BREACH that got Shikongo Suspended. I joined our Eagle 🦅 25 Production Team and we filed this REPORT! Oto Afraida Kaana komuBorni!

Look at the flag flying at this clinic. It represents the state of health in our nation — and right now, that state is a crisis. As you read this, in the WHOLE COUNTRY: (1) There is NO Midazolam or Diazepam injection available — not in public, not in private. These are the medicines used to stop severe seizures (Status Epilepticus). Without them, we are waiting for BRAIN DAMAGE and DEATH. (2) There is NO Heparin anywhere in the country. This blood-thinning medicine is needed for dialysis patients and pregnancy units. The danger we face threatens both the living and the unborn. It seems medicine is only available in press statements. This is EXTREMELY BAD. We demand an URGENT EXPLANATION — and we will hold government accountable for any death resulting from this RECKLESSNESS. ‼️‼️‼️

Windhoek resident’s response to the presence of Angolan women and children in Windhoek has raised serious questions about why City of Windhoek Council passed a resolution to remove the penge ondola (give a dollar) https://t.co/0NJMN5zWDU
This morning, the federal government turned the full force of the Department of Homeland Security against a sitting member of Congress for the offense of disagreeing with the White House.
The path to citizenship should not be weaponized against anyone, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American who swore an oath to this country — the same one that I took.
The promise of citizenship should not be contingent on someone agreeing with the federal government.
OPINIONS | I am delighted that parliamentarian Job Amupanda recently published an insightful article titled ‘Parliament in Space and Time: The Tyranny of Description Over Explanation’ in several local newspapers.
