Namibian Prime Minister Hage Geingob has won the country's presidential election in a landslide vote.
SWAPO presidential candidate Geingob becomes president-elect with a massive haul of 87 per cent of the vote.
"I have the honour and privilege to declare Geingob... duly elected as the winner," electoral commission chairwoman Nontemba Tjipueja announced.
In the race for the legislature, SWAPO took 80 per cent of the vote in a turnout of 72 per cent of registered voters.
Forged in the anti-colonial and anti-apartheid struggle, the South West Africa People's Organisation (SWAPO) has won every election since Namibia's independence in 1990.
Already an overpowering force in Namibian politics, the party managed to improve on the 2009 elections, when it received 75 per cent of the vote.
Then, the official opposition Rally for Progress and Democracy (RPD) managed to pull double figures with just over 11 per cent of the vote.
But they found themselves booted from second to third place this year with only 3.15 per cent of the vote, according to figures on the official Electoral Commission website.
Taking their place as the strongest opposition in parliament is the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance, with 4.8 per cent.
About 1.2 million Namibians were eligible to cast their vote on Friday on nearly 4000 electronic voting machines across the vast desert nation.
Other African countries have run pilot or limited e-voting, but none have done so on this scale.
