President Hage Geingob’s remains have been brought to his private residence, Casa Rosalia, where his family has gathered to bid him farewell. Former First Lady Monica Geingos, the Geingob and Kalondo children, as well as close family and friends, were present to pay their respects to the late president on Friday. His body will then be taken to Parliament Gardens, where the public will have the opportunity to view it until 11h30 on Saturday.
A large number of Windhoek residents assembled along the route that Geingob’s body travelled from Stat House to Casa Rosalia. The route included Khomasdal, Katutura, and the Windhoek central business district. In honor of the late president, new billboards are being placed on Independence Avenue in Windhoek.
The procession of Geingob’s body was reportedly running behind schedule, as confirmed by the Ministry of Defence and Veterans Affairs spokesperson, Petrus Shilumbu.
