Sunday, the fourth of February, will forever go down in the annals of history. This is the first time in Namibia that a sitting president has passed on. A day when Namibians' unity was tested to the limit.
Political analysts are united in their view that President Geingob and his generation were peerless in their struggle for Namibia's liberation.
During a panel discussion of a special broadcast on the lives and times of President Hage Geingob, Dr. Phanuel Kaapama, Dr. Marius Kudumo, and seasoned diplomat Dr. Kaire Mbuende highlighted the pioneering role President Geingob and his peers played in Namibia's liberation from colonial oppression and setting up the Namibian state after political independence in 1990.
