Some members of the Ovaherero community, led by Professor Mutjinde Katjiua, held a commemoration today marking the anniversary of the 1904 extermination order against the Ovaherero and Nama people.

The continued effects of the 1904 Genocide, which saw the displacement of many OvaHerero people, were highlighted at the Chief Hosea Kutako and Otjiserandu Tjongeama commemorations with descendants from Botswana, Canada, and the US.
