The Former Refugees Repatriation Association of Namibia (FRRAN) said it will now escalate its demands to President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah following an inconclusive meeting with Swapo Party officials and United Nations (UN) representatives on Saturday.

Thousands of Congolese refugees arrived in Burundi on Saturday, after renewed violence linked to the M23 group in the Democratic Republic of Congo's North and South Kivu provinces. 

President Nangolo Mbumba has applauded the government of Eswatini for accommodating Mozambican nationals as refugees, providing them with necessary assistance.

Dr. Mbumba conveyed the message to King Mswati III through his special envoy and Minister of Labour and Social Security, Phila Buthelezi.
