The Angolan head of state, João Lourenço, who was in Namibia on a three-day state visit, returned home on Saturday.

The Namibian and Angolan leaders have directed their cabinet ministers to meet and review agreements under the Joint Permanent Commission for Cooperation. Presidents Hage Geingob and João Lourenço say the outstanding agreements must be prioritised for implementation.

Banco Nacional De Angola will repay the last installment of about N$600 million to Bank of Namibia (BoN) by June this year. The repayment is part of a US$390 million payment of the Kwanza currency conversion agreement between the Namibian reserve bank and the Angolan reserve bank which was signed four-years ago.

President Hage Geingob said as leaders, Namibia and Angola should continue to make the necessary investments in a peaceful region. Geingob made the remarks during a dinner hosted in honour of Angolan President, Joao Lourenco, during his three-day state visit to Namibia.
