National Convention (Namibia)

National Convention (Namibia)

When the International Court of Justice ruled in 1971 that South African rule in Namibia was illegal, various pro-independence groups and parties, including the South West Africa National Union (SWANU), the South West Africa Peoples Organization (SWAPO), and the National Unity Democratic Organisation (NUDO) formed the National Convention as a united front against South African rule.[1]
