President Dr Lazarus Chakwera says the Malawi nation is in grief over the passing of Namibia’s President Hage Geingob, who passed away on 4 February 2024 at Lady Pohamba Hospital in Windhoek.
Chakwera said Namibia has lost one of its greatest sons who was an outstanding Pan – Africanist who acted as his elder brother in the past three years due to his intellect.
“Late President Geingob was no ordinary man, and because he went all over the world sowing the seed of freedom, peace and prosperity for Namibia and Africa…We have come from all over the world to mourn the passing of this great man, whose gravitas in life can only be matched by our grief in his death,” he said.
The Malawi leader was speaking at Independent Stadium in Windhoek during a state funeral.
