Note sull'episodio

New data show that Khomas constituencies with the highest unemployment rates recorded the lowest voter turnout, with participation in some areas dropping to the mid-20s.

In the Tobias Hainyeko, Moses ||Garoëb and Samora Machel constituencies, the figures reveal growing political disconnection among young and economically struggling residents.

Desert FM speaks to youth activist Armando Pieters about why many young Namibians are opting out of voting and how civic engagement can be revived.
