Will the 2009 National assembly elections verdict by the Supreme Court pave the way for future improved and more open elections in Namibia


Members of the Rally for Democracy and Progress started with a "sit-in" at the Supreme court in the capitol this afternoon. The RDP executive committee at it's regular meeting held 6 July,  decided to mount a peaceful demonstration starting today. The RDP said they will camp in front of the Supreme Court until the verdict of the 2009 National Assembly Election Case is delivered. The group's whose members come and go can be numbered between 100 and 150. When I paid a visit to the group earlier tonight some already erected their tents while others made some bed on the pavement. The Police is on standby, and keep a close eye on the group. A letter handed to lotteringnews by the RDP said they will refrain from any violence and their members will stick to a set code of conduct.
