Plans to repatriate 201 Namibian descendents from Botswana to Gam Settlement in the Otjozondjupa Region have hit a snag.

Otjozondjupa Governor James Uerikua confirmed that the initial plan to repatriate the community by the end of this year is stalled due to logistical challenges.

The last group of 26 refugees and asylum seekers in Namibia left for the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

nbc News caught up with them during the wee hours of this morning at the Hosea Kutako International Airport (HKIA).
