In the next five years the Namibian government plans to expropriate 192 farms owned by foreigners which combined cover an area of 1,268,911 hectares, according to the country’s outgoing president Sam Nujoma.

"During the next five years the SWAPO Party Government will expropriate 192 farms belonging to foreign landlords in order to resettle more people and enable them to become productive and proud land owners," Nujoma said at the launch of the ruling South West Africa People's Organisation (SWAPO) election manifesto.
