Statue de Curt von Francois \u00e0 Windhoek retir\u00e9e le 23 novembre | \u00a9 Journal New Era, Facebook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Une statue de l\u2019officier colonial allemand Curt von Francois dans la capitale namibienne, Windhoek, a \u00e9t\u00e9 retir\u00e9e le 23 novembre.<\/p>\n

La statue \u00e9tait controvers\u00e9e car elle \u00e9tait un signe de la colonisation et le fait que von Francois ait r\u00e9ellement fond\u00e9 Windhoek en 1890 est contest\u00e9.<\/p>\n

La statue a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9rig\u00e9e en 1965 pour c\u00e9l\u00e9brer le 75e anniversaire de la fondation de la ville et \u00e9tait plac\u00e9e sur un pi\u00e9destal devant les b\u00e2timents de la ville de Windhoek. En 1965, la Namibie \u00e9tait sous le contr\u00f4le de l\u2019Afrique du Sud, alors dirig\u00e9e par un r\u00e9gime \u00e0 minorit\u00e9 blanche. La Namibie est devenue ind\u00e9pendante en 1990.<\/p>\n

L\u2019Allemagne a colonis\u00e9 la Namibie de 1884 \u00e0 1915 et von Francois \u00e9tait gouverneur de ce qui s\u2019appelait alors le Sud-Ouest africain allemand. On attribue \u00e0 Von Francois la fondation de Windhoek, mais les historiens et les militants estiment qu\u2019il n\u2019est pas le v\u00e9ritable fondateur, car la population autochtone vivait dans la r\u00e9gion avant l\u2019arriv\u00e9e des Allemands.<\/p>\n

Une p\u00e9tition lanc\u00e9e il y a deux ans et qui a recueilli 1 700 signatures en quelques semaines consid\u00e8re que le fondateur l\u00e9gitime est Jonker Afrikaner, le chef de l\u2019ethnie Nama qui a \u00e9tabli une colonie dans la r\u00e9gion vers 1840. Elle soulignait que l\u2019officier allemand avait seulement construit le vieux fort de Windhoek en 1890 dans le cadre d\u2019une op\u00e9ration militaire.<\/p>\n

La statue \u00e9tait \u00e9galement controvers\u00e9e parce que von Francois a conduit les troupes allemandes \u00e0 tuer des populations indig\u00e8nes.<\/p>\n

Von Fran\u00e7ois a \u00e9pous\u00e9 une femme Damara \u2013 les Damaras et les Namas sont deux grands groupes ethniques de Namibie qui partagent la m\u00eame langue \u2013 qui a donn\u00e9 naissance \u00e0 une fille. L\u2019une des descendantes de Von Fran\u00e7ois, Sharon Nangombe, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 \u00e0 VOA<\/em><\/a> qu\u2019elle pensait qu\u2019il \u00e9tait dans l\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat du pays que la statue soit retir\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

La d\u00e9cision de retirer la statue a \u00e9t\u00e9 prise en octobre par le conseil municipal de Windhoek et fait suite \u00e0 une r\u00e9solution prise en 2021 visant \u00e0 \u00e9laborer une politique globale en mati\u00e8re d\u2019h\u00e9ritage et de patrimoine. Sur le site officiel de la ville de Windhoek<\/a>, on peut lire que l\u2019actuelle ville de Windhoek a \u00e9t\u00e9 fond\u00e9e en 1890, lorsque Von Francois a pos\u00e9 la premi\u00e8re pierre du fort, mais que les premi\u00e8res occupations des lieux par Jonker Afrikaner remontent \u00e0 1849 environ.<\/p>\n

Une avenue qui portait le nom de Curt von Francois a \u00e9t\u00e9 modifi\u00e9e en 1990, l\u2019ann\u00e9e de son ind\u00e9pendance.<\/p>\n

L\u2019ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re, l\u2019Allemagne a accept\u00e9 de financer des projets de d\u00e9veloppement en Namibie pour un montant de 1,3 milliard de dollars sur 30 ans afin de compenser les meurtres et les terres qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 prises. En octobre, la Namibie a demand\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019Allemagne de ren\u00e9gocier les termes de l\u2019accord, ce qu\u2019elle a refus\u00e9 de faire.<\/p>\n

La statue de von Francois a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9plac\u00e9e dans un mus\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
