Spain's Deputy Minister responsible for European Affairs, Fernando Sampedro, has reiterated his country's continued collaboration with Namibia, including in the sports sector.

He commended the work of the Real Madrid Foundation with different schools, using sport as a tool both for education and social integration.

Sampedro represented the government of Spain at the late President Hage Geingob's funeral service.

The Spanish delegation paid a brief courtesy call to President Nangolo Mbumba at State House shortly before departure to Spain on Sunday.
