The voltages found in Namibia (220V) and Switzerland (230V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Namibia and Switzerland is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
