Proportional representation and appointments by the President
The National Assembly is the lower chamber of Namibia's bicameral Parliament. It has a total of 104 members. 96 members are directly elected through a system of party-list proportional representation and serve five-year terms. Eight additional members are appointed by the President.
The current National Assembly was formed following elections on 28 November 2014. Since 2015, SWAPO member Peter Katjavivi has been the Speaker of the National Assembly.
Despite being a one party dominant state since its independence in 1990, Namibian elections have been transparent, free, and largely fair.
