Debate over how Namibia dealt with its colonial past took centre stage during a panel discussion organised by the Forum of German-Speaking Namibians in Swakopmund.

Dr. John Nakuta was one of the presenters at the panel discussion, which discussed challenges to democracy. Dr. Nakuta was of the view that issues like the Ovaherero-Nama genocide and land restitution have not been dealt with appropriately, posing a threat to democracy.
