Namibia and Cuba will explore new areas of economic cooperation during the three-day state visit of Cuba's President Miguel Diaz Canel-Bermudez.

President Hage Geingob has commended Cuba for assisting Namibia in her fight for liberation without expecting any reward.

Therefore, having the President of Cuba, Miguel Diaz-Canel Bermudes, as the guest of honour at the Heroes' Day commemoration is befitting.

President Hage Geingob will be departing for Johannesburg, South Africa, this afternoon to participate in the BRICS-Africa Outreach and the BRICS Plus Dialogues.

President Hage Geingob turned 82 years old today, and what a ride it has been.

His journey as a statesman has been eventful, filled with significant experiences.
