NO MORE| Three descendants of the Herero and Nama Genocide who were among those resettled at Gam have died. This was revealed on Thursday by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform, Inge Zaamwani during an engagement with the returnees. In September 2024, a group of Ovaherero descendants of the Herero and Nama genocide were repatriated from Botswana to Namibia. They have since been housed at Gam in the Otjozondjupa Region.
