Africa-Press – Namibia. FIRST lady Monica Geingos says she is being accused of harbouring presidential ambitions of making appointments that should be made by president Hage Geingob.
Geingos described the accusations as untrue, malicious and demoralising.
She was speaking at a Swapo Party Women’s Council event at Outapi on Monday.
“So demoralising that at times a person wants to decline invitations, not be seen at too many places and not to talk too much.”
She said for instance when she received an invitation from Swapo Party Women’s Council to be the keynote speaker at Outapi, she nearly declined it.
“When I got to my office and I was reminded that I must decide on this invitation, I realised I was starting to shrink myself to fit small minds,” said Geingos.
She urged women not to be demoralised and always regard serving Swapo as an opportunity to serve the people.
Geingos said Swapo is a collective political home for all its members.
“It is where all of us derive our sense of political belonging.”
