Dr. Sam Nujoma from Namibia was a good friend of Zimbabwe. He helped them when they wanted to take back land for their people. Many other countries said Zimbabwe should not take the land, but Dr. Nujoma said they had the right to do it.
A special meeting happened today in Harare to remember Dr. Nujoma. Professor Murwira wrote a speech about him. The speech said Zimbabwe was very important to Dr. Nujoma because both countries fought hard to be free.
When other countries stopped talking to Zimbabwe because of the land changes, Dr. Nujoma spoke up for them. He knew some countries still tried to control Africa even after African countries became free. He wanted all African people to own their lands.
Dr. Nujoma asked other African countries to support Zimbabwe. He talked to many important groups about why the land changes mattered. His words helped people understand why African countries needed to control their farms and businesses.
Dr. Nujoma left his job as president in 2005, but he still advised leaders. In 2017, he came to see President Mnangagwa become the new leader of Zimbabwe. Dr. Nujoma brought other important leaders with him to show they supported Zimbabwe.
