The death of our founding president, Sam Nujoma, has left us with profound sorrow and heavy hearts.
Hendrik Gaobaeb, the president of the United Democratic Front (UDF), extends his deepest condolences to the Nujoma family and the entire Namibian nation on the untimely loss of their revolutionary leader, father, and committed statesman, who was known for his dedication and unwavering leadership during the liberation struggle.
President Nujoma’s life was a testament to courage and selflessness. He was a gallant leader who fought tirelessly for the total liberation of our nation, dedicating his life to the struggle of all Namibians. His legacy will forever be etched in our hearts.
Although our hearts are heavy, Gaobaeb takes solace in the knowledge that the legacy of our founding president will endure. He stands in solidarity with the Nujoma family and the Namibian people, offering support and prayers during this difficult time.
May the spirit of the gallant son of the soil continue to inspire us. Long live the memory of founding president Sam Nujoma.
Long live.
