A group of genocide victims' descendants from the !Gai||naxas area in the Berseba Constituency has arrived in Windhoek ahead of Namibia’s first official Genocide Remembrance Day, set for May 28.
President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has called on Namibians to recommit themselves to the values that carried them through the darkest chapters of the country’s history as they recall the events of Cassinga today.
These are commitments to discipline, unity of purpose, resilience, and unwavering patriotism.
President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah says she feels empowered and encouraged by the support given to her by former Presidents Hifikepunye Pohamba and Nangolo Mbumba, describing them as strong pillars to lean on and shoulders to cry on during her tenure as Head of State.
In an effort to promote education and preserve Namibia's rich history, the Hifikepunye Pohamba Foundation, in collaboration with the University of Namibia, has presented the recently launched autobiography, "Footprints of Hifikepunye Pohamba," to northern communities.
