Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>FIRST lady Monica Geingos says she is being accused of harbouring presidential ambitions of making appointments that should be made by president Hage Geingob.<\/p>\n

Geingos described the accusations as untrue, malicious and demoralising.<\/p>\n

She was speaking at a Swapo Party Women’s Council event at Outapi on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo demoralising that at times a person wants to decline invitations, not be seen at too many places and not to talk too much.\u201d<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen 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,\u201d said Geingos.<\/p>\n

She urged women not to be demoralised and always regard serving Swapo as an opportunity to serve the people.<\/p>\n

Geingos said Swapo is a collective political home for all its members.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is where all of us derive our sense of political belonging.\u201d<\/p>\n
