The African National Congress (ANC) and the Swapo Party were sister liberation movements that collaborated closely in the struggle for the liberation of South Africa and Namibia. 

South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa says the late President Hage Geingob's ethical leadership is a worthy example to emulate.

Numerous youth leaders came to the fore to express their condolences to the nation.

Among them was Sylvanus Lotto, the Regional Chairperson of the Tukwatha Youth Organisation.

The Tukwatha Youth Organisation aims to aid and occasionally organise activities for other youth groups. 

Swapo Party Kavango West Regional Coordinator David Hipulwa, in his tribute, described the late party President as a unifier.

Swapo Party members in the Otjozondjupa Region say the legacy of President Hage Geingob will not be honoured if unity is not maintained.

Over the years, Swapo membership in the region has been dwindling, and factions have formed along district and regional ranks.
