Accra, June 19, GNA – Namibia President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah on Friday departed Accra after participating in the High-Level Consultative Conference on the Next Steps for the Landmark United Nations General Assembly Resolution A/RES/80/250 on the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

She was seen off at the Accra International Airport by Mr Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Ghana’s Minister of Foreign Affairs.

The Accra Summit, which was hosted by President John Dramani Mahama sought to reinforce the historic step taken by the international community to recognise the enduring legacy and global consequences of the enslavement of Africans and the racialised chattel enslavement of Africans.

According to the itinerary of President Nandi-Ndaitwah, she is proceeding from Accra to Tanzania for a State Visit aimed at further strengthening the longstanding ties of friendship and cooperation between Namibia and Tanzania.
