The Landless People's Movement (LPM) leader Bernardus Swartbooi added his voice to the tributes pouring in for the late President Geingob.

Swartbooi said he had hoped that the late president would recover after his medical treatment, adding that he was shocked at his sudden demise.

Swartbooi recounted his recent visit to Dr. Geingob's house.

Landless People's Movement (LPM) leader Bernardus Swartbooi has encouraged members at the second People's Assembly to put theory into practice.

Swartbooi emphasised that in order to achieve change, the LPM must be willing to do the legwork.

LPM started off with its policy conference on Thursday and is now holding the People's Assembly.

The movement, Swartbooi says, is a leftist one, reminding the delegates at the assembly that their conscience should be directed to ensuring equal distribution of all the country's resources.
