Member of the German Parliament Charlotte Neuhauser has called on the German Government to pay reparations to the Nama and Ovaherero people who were victims of the 1904-1908 genocide and not the proposed €1.1 billion, which is equivalent to N$20.4 billion.  

The Nama Traditional Leaders Association (NTLA) has rejected the government's approval for the signing of the Nama and Ovaherero genocide reparations agreement with the German government. 

Cabinet approved the signing of the Joint Declaration in mid-December last year.
