Namibia’s President, Hage Geingob has died at the age of 82.
He passed away in hospital in the capital Windhoek. It was announced last month he had cancer – and was undergoing treatment.
Geingob was the nation’s third president following independence in 1990.
While he was well respected across Africa, some say a corruption scandal tainted his legacy.
Al Jazeera’s Fahmida Miller takes a look back at his political career.
