In a first for the southern African region, residents of Namibia and Botswana can now cross between the two countries without passports.
Residents will only need their identification documents to cross the border between the two countries.
‘Our two countries not only share a common border, but also a common people and heritage, ‘Namibian president Hage Geingob said on Friday, 9 September according to ZimLive.
‘A symbiotic and inter-dependent relationship exists along our common borders. Therefore, I call on our senior officials to fast-track the implementation of the usage of Identity Documents (IDs) as travel documents between the two countries, without delay.’
