Traditional Authorities in the Zambezi Region have paid homage to the late President Hage Geingob, describing him as having lived a life worth emulating by current and future generations.

The Masubia, Mayeyi, Mafwe, and Mashi Traditional Authorities say the memories of Dr. Geingob as a freedom fighter and persevering statesman are legacies that need to be honored.

The Bukalo Village Council organised a candlelight service on Thursday night to pay tribute to the late President Dr. Hage Geingob, commemorating him as their leader, father, and inspiration.

The ceremony attracted a large number of residents of the village and those from neighbouring villages, as well as some from Katima Mulilo.

The Masubia Senior Councillor, Ngambela, Albius Milinga, noted that the Munitenge Royal Establishment remembers the late president as one who had a passion for the people.
