Keynote Address by Her Excellency, Dr. Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, President of the Republic of Namibia on the Occasion of the 59th Heroes Day Commemoration

26 August 2025

Katima Mulilo, Zambezi Region

Fellow Namibians.

This is the first time in our history marking the Heroes Day, 26 August, without His Excellency Comrade Dr. Shafiishuna Sam Daniel Nujoma, the Commander-In-Chief of the People ‘s Liberation Army of Namibia (PLAN), Leader of our Revolution, Founding President and Father of the Nation. His seat is now empty forever. May we stand and observe a moment of silence in his honour and pay homage to the heroes and heroines of Namibia.

May his legacy continue to guide us in carrying out our national responsibilities and let their blood continue to water our freedom for prosperity.

Fellow Namibians,

As we remember the Heroes Day, it is important to recognise the immense contributions made by our former Presidents in securing a peaceful, stable and proud nation for the past 35 years; and honour their legacies as pillars of our democracy.

While our Founding President H.E Cde Sam Shafiishuna Nujoma and third President Hage Geingob have left us, their teachings continue to guide us. However, we are honoured and blessed that we continue to benefit from the wisdom of our second and fourth Presidents, their Excellencies Comrades Hifikepunye Pohamba and Nangolo Mbumba, respectively. Their guidance and leadership have propelled Namibians to be united into One Namibia-One Nation. May their legacies continue to guide us today and for generations to come.

Today we are here at Katima Mulilo in the Zambezi Region the birthplace of our hero Brenden Simbwaye, a birth place of a highly respected SWAPO Political Commissar Comrade Greenwell Matongo, and the likes of Richard Kabadjani Kapelwa, Fridrick Matongo and many others. Zambezi is also the final destination of Commander Tobias Hainyeko. Their sacrifices remind us to uphold the values of unity, peace, inclusivity and progress. Among the living pioneers who hailed from this Region include Col Patrick Mwinga, comrades Lucas Kulandata “Situation” among others.

At this point, let me inform the Namibia nation that our government has decided to designate symbolic graves at the Heroes Acre in remembrance of Comrades Simbwaye and Hainyeko.

Fellow Namibians,

August 26, is a revered day for Namibia and her people. On this special day every year, Namibians gather to remember the exceptional bravery that ignited the flame of resistance against colonial subjugation and to end the illegal occupation of the South African Racist Regime in our country. The gallant sons and daughters of our Land of the Brave resolved with unwavering commitment, to exercise their undeniable right to self-determination, freedom and independence. On this day, we pay homage to the gallant sons and daughters of our motherland who decided to confront, albeit, with limited weaponry, one of the most formidable militaries in Africa at the time.

The aim was freedom and independence, if not for them, then certainly for the generations that would come after them. The brave sons and daughters of Namibia rose up and took arms to liberate the motherland, after having pursued all peaceful means to secure peace, freedom and independence for all Namibians.

Today, we are here walking tall alongside the nations of the world as a free and independent people in the Land of the Brave. Glory to their bravery!

Fellow Namibians,

The theme of the 59th Heroes Day Commemoration is; “Built on bravery, bound for a prosperous future”, captures the spirit of resilience that defined Namibia’s journey toward freedom from the days of resistance to independence on the 21st March 1990.
