Miss Namibia 2022 commits to running for the next presidential election

Former Miss Namibia, Cassia Sharpley, has doubled down on her pledge to run to be president of the southern African country, despite seemingly being too young.

Cassia Sharpley, who won the beauty pageant in 2022, had told her 23,000 Instagram followers she would soon share her “journey towards becoming President of the Republic of Namibia”.

Although several followers pointed out that presidential candidates must be over 35, as per the Namibian constitution, 23-year-old Ms Sharpley repeated her statement on Thursday.

She told her followers she would offer more information in forthcoming YouTube videos.

“Let’s talk about me, that’s running for presidency,” she said on Instagram.

Ms Sharpley said she planned to run as an independent candidate.
