President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah and her Sierra Leonean counterpart, Julius Maada Bio, have reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening the historic ties between Namibia and Sierra Leone, rooted in their shared struggle against colonialism.

For the first time in 125 years, the Swakopmund Museum is displaying an exhibition on the 1904-08 Herero and Nama Genocide.

Previously, the museum only showcased the colonial background of German successes in the country, with no mention of the black communities living in Swakopmund.
