The importance of striving for peace and justice is once again brought to the forefront as Namibia commemorates Cassinga Day.

The Cassinga survivors, accompanied by Khomas Regional Governor Laura McLeod-Katjirua, laid a wreath at Heroes Acre in Windhoek in honour of those who died in the attack at Cassinga.

Some of the Cassinga survivors described the day's attack as brutal.

The United Nations estimates that close to 260 million people in close to 60 countries around the world face acute food insecurity that requires urgent intervention.

Today marks 45 years since the Cassinga massacre, during which about 600 Namibians died.

President Hage Geingob says it is not only a day to commemorate the selfless acts of sacrifice but also a day for Namibians to reaffirm patriotism and foster a true sense of pride and duty towards the nation.
