“This achievement is not only a triumph for our business, but a victory for every Namibian who entrusts us with their future. It is their dreams, resilience and belief in us that drive our success. This recognition reflects the collective strength of Namibian excellence. From Windhoek to every corner of our country, advisers, managers and leaders continue to deliver world-class financial solutions that place clients at the centre,” stated Charnel-Ann Heyn, Momentum marketing specialist. At the award ceremony, Namibia was recognised as Best Life Company under the leadership of CEO Sakaria Nghikembua.

Each of these wins represents lives touched and dreams protected – from families planning for tomorrow to businesses securing their future.
At the forefront of this achievement is Nghikembua, whose vision and passion continue to inspire the entire organisation. “This recognition belongs to the entire Momentum Metropolitan Namibia family. For two consecutive years, we have demonstrated that Namibia is not only a leader locally but also a driving force across the continent. Our advisers, managers, support teams and executive members live our purpose every day to build and protect our clients’ financial dreams. This award is proof that when every part of the business works together with passion and commitment to serving clients, excellence naturally follows,” Nghikembua stated.
Namibia contributed nearly 60% of all Momentum Africa wins this year. “Momentum Metropolitan Namibia’s consecutive recognition as the Best Life Insurance Company in Momentum Africa is more than a corporate victory. It is a proud Namibian achievement and a celebration of what we can accomplish together when we place our clients at the centre, lead with vision and serve with our hearts,” Heyn stated.
