The Oshikoto Regional Governor, Penda ya Ndakolo, has expressed dismay over what he perceives as individuals making light or expressing joy at the death of President Hage Geingob.

Ya Ndakolo addressed a memorial service held in the Oshikoto Region, at the Omuthiya ELCIN Parish.

Ya Ndakolo suggested that those who feel unaffected by President Geingob's passing, should keep their opinions private and allow those grieving his death, to do so.

He said Geingob should be honoured for his significant contributions to the nation. 

The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Namibia, including the Omuthiya ElCIN Parish, paid tribute to the late President Hage Geingob, honouring his memory as a leader of great spirituality who consistently made time to attend church services. 

The late Geingob also attended a church service at Omuthiya Parish when he visited the town. 

Parishioners fondly remembered the late President Geingob's unwavering faith and his commitment to serving both the nation and the spiritual community.
