Botswana: 23 Namibian refugees return home

Twenty-three Namibian refugees who arrived in Botswana in 1998 were voluntarily repatriated to Namibia early Saturday (18 November 2006) morning at the Dukwi Refugee camp. The Namibians mostly from the Caprivi region and the surrounding areas sought political asylum in Botswana in 1998 after an unpleasant political situation in the region.
