AFRICAN NATIONAL CONGRESS (ANC) WISHES THE FOUNDING FATHER OF NAMIBIA A SPEEDY RECOVERY

The African National Congress (ANC) extends its heartfelt well-wishes to the founding father of the Republic of Namibia, Dr. Sam Nujoma, who is currently hospitalised. We join the people of Namibia, the Nujoma family, Swapo Party and the international community in praying for his strength and full recovery.

Dr. Nujoma’s leadership in the struggle for Namibia’s independence and his unwavering commitment to Pan-Africanism have left an indelible mark on our continent, and his legacy continues to inspire generations.

We stand in solidarity with the Namibian nation during this time and remain hopeful that his resilience and determination will see him through this period of ill health. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his loved ones.

ISSUED BY THE AFRICAN NATIONAL CONGRESS.
