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

"The rule of law has been grossly violated and we cannot call these elections by any means or measure as free, fair and legitimate," said Itula, who finished second in the 2019 vote.
