DescriptionPresident Sam Nujoma works in very pleasant surroundings in the small but beautiful old State House slap bang in the middle of Windhoek just a stone throw away from Namibia's equally beautiful parliament

The question on everyone's lips is why on earth does he want to build a new State House.

Currently a massive concrete presidential monstrosity is being erected on the outskirts of the capital costing millions of Namibian dollars at a time when the Namibian Government is appealing for relief aid for drought victims.

President Nujoma will never occupy the new State House if he keeps his word and retires this year, but his successor will have lots of space to rattle around in.
