- The first president of independent Namibia, Sam Nujoma, has died at the age of 95, the country's current leader has announced.
Nujoma led the long fight for independence from South Africa in 1990 after helping found Namibia's liberation movement known as the South West Peoples' Organisation (Swapo) in the 1960s.
After independence, Nujoma became president in 1990 and led the country until 2005.
Nujoma had been hospitalised over the past three weeks with an illness from which he "could not recover", Namibian President Nangolo Mbumba said.

I am a Namibian. I am no fan of Swapo, though I did vote for them in the first election with independance. I am sorry the old man passed away. Most of us white Afrikaners have a soft spot for him. We call him Oom Sam. Uncle Sam that is.
Will be greatly missed 😢
May his soul continue resting in internal peace founding father! A fearless liberation Stalwart 😢
Rest easy big homie 🕊️
Rest in Eternal Peace founding father of the Namibian nation

As a Namibian born 4 years before independence, I pay homage to this great man. the stark difference in the quality of life i have and the quality of life my parents had, is testament to his effort in paving the way for our people to pursue their dreams and achieve them. We Thank him for availing his shoulders so that we can stand on it. My children have great life from two working class parents, who took the opportunities of education in courses our parents were forbidden to embark on. Born and lived in Namibia all my life, I have no intentions of moving else where. Thank you Dr. Nujoma, Dr education, and tatekulu goshigwana . R.I.P ..

What i do know is that some whites were against the apartheid system.

Ok.
meanwhile in Scotland people trying to eat it is not relevant mr. obama and his struggle
What in the black lives matter is going on here 😂😂
You see a black person and automatically reference black lives matter and Trevor McDonald as if it has any relevance to the discussion. I can tell you're not the brightest or have anything of significance to add to any conversation you step into. You're the donkey that right-wing parties keep on a treadmill to fuel their political objectives while telling you you'll get your carrot one day.
Those are scenes of namibians when they gained independence.To namibians and some africans he was important as ur heroes and heroines in the west
Was fragst du so blöd?
Why are you asking such a stupid question?
hey BBC , how much of my US tax dollars did you get for USAID ?
Since when did President became King? 95 should be in elderly care
Looked it up, he served 3 terms of 5 years and stepped down in 2005.
His a king in his own way. And mind you that in Africa we don't put our elderlies in home cares. We take care of our elderlies in our homes till their last breath. Rest well king sam nuyoma
Keep being jealous
What elderly care? that is a western culture, our elders are never stashed away in institutions, they remain a part of society impacting wisdom until the lord recalls them
@@de-sh109Lord? Are you OK?
Thanks to all you "people" that voted labour, I'm sure you have no issue with the revelation that socialism does not equal freedom. Communism and socialism have track records of horrific human rights abuses.
Thanks again. A northerner (so why should you care).
Wrong platform.
Don't worry his legacy is going to be destroyed by our 1st F president.
Why is this news? Hes a former president of a very small insignificant country that would never matter to anyone
You are insignificant here, you clown of S
Because He is a Great Leader
As always, there is a donkey who doesn't even know the size of Namibia, which is a thousand times bigger than your country.
Shut up you clown, nobody asked you to comment
He is more important and significant than You who are a useless Insignificant Clown that Nobody cares about you, you Clown
meanwhile in Scotland........
He was a numpty ! 😂🤡
Yes just like your mom
And You're a S
