Ghana is celebrating 69 years of independence, marking the country's freedom from British colonial rule. The West African nation became the first in sub-Saharan Africa to break free from colonial rule when it gained independence on the 6th of March, 1957.

A documentary exploring the history and legacy of the Ovaherero and Nama Genocide has been produced.

The documentary raises questions about apology, justice and reconciliation, more than a century later.

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.
