Namibia’s main opposition party has said it will not recognise results from this week’s general election, where there have been logistical problems and voting was extended in several places.

Namibia extended voting for a second time Thursday with the opposition crying foul after logistical failures prevented many people from casting ballots in the tightly fought election.

Voters waited in long queues outside polling stations in Namibia's capital Windhoek on Wednesday morning to cast their ballots for a new president and parliament in what could be a tough election to win for the ruling SWAPO party.

Namibia's top opposition presidential candidate, Panduleni Itula, said Saturday that his party would not recognize the results of a controversially extended election marred by chaos and allegations of foul play.
