Namibia says the deal agreed with Germany for €1.1bn in aid following the colonial-era genocide is not enough but it would revisit and renegotiate as funding is rolled out.
A week ago Germany issued a long-awaited apology for the murder of tens of thousands of Herero and Nama people.
Germany's apology resulted from the first negotiations of their kind by a former colonial power.

There are also calls for compensation to made directly to the victims' descendants, for fear the money won't reach those for whom it's intended.
