"Some of us look great because we are standing on the shoulders of giants".
These were the words of nbc Director General Stanley Similo during an interview focused on the broadcaster's extensive coverage of the Founding President's final farewell.
After three weeks of mourning, which included regional memorials with the remains of Dr. Sam Nujoma, Namibians, joined by international dignitaries including Heads of State, laid the Founding President and Father of the Namibian Nation, Dr. Sam Nujoma, to rest at the Heroes' Acre.
The close bond between Dr. Sam Nujoma, leader of SWAPO, and Oliver Tambo, leader of the ANC, during their exile years in the 1960s, established a solid foundation for relations between Namibia and South Africa liberation movements, strengthened by the mutual respect and trust they shared.
Community members living in and around the town of Nkurenkuru, in the Kavango West Region, met at the Nkurenkuru Expo Hall to watch the live screening of the Founding President's funeral.
The screening was organised by MICT, Kavango West.
The solemn procession carrying the remains of Namibia's Founding President passed through historically significant areas, including the Old Location, where the struggle for liberation began.
