A year later, late President Hage G Geingob bought a further 130 expecting cows from myself after a protracted, long and hard negotiation on both price and transport logistics. Hage was the Father I didn’t have! Go well Great Statesman. I salute you “Fatherly”
68km before Opuuo from Sesfontein my GRN vehicle suffered suspected engine overheat and my team and I spent three hours and more waiting for assistance from Gov Garage technicians.
Kavepandjara Kazenambo Kazenambo has been laid to rest at Okapuka Farm where his great grandfather was buried. It was a somber but deeply moving occasion. May your Soul Rest In Peace cde KK 😭😭😭
Agnes Kapena Hindjou passed on at 84 years of age. My dear wife Kahoo F W Kandjoze, is one of her children. Madam Hindjou counts amongst the very first dedicated black nurses trained in RSA and continued to serve our country until her retirement 20 odd yrs ago. MHSRIP😭
In 2013 I Obeth Mbui Kandjoze donated 30 pregnant heifers on my initiation. I decided on this donation because his farm at the time experienced an extensive veld fire. Whatever else told to character assassinate him and I was political conjectures.
Stopped for a little while east of HKIA on my way to Omaheke and was infatuated by the sunrise today. It’s phenomenon I haven’t experienced in the colors on display this morning. Beautiful Namibia.
On Feb 11th, 2024 I attended the first Evangelical Lutheran Church in honor of late Dr HGG. Today will be my second time and will continue where I can to live up to this honor in his memory where I can. Rest in PEACE in sacrifice of your people.
Tonight I had an apartheid era experience at the Opuuo Country Hotel from the owner a certain Wouter Smith. The events where reminiscent of true apartheid era insults and physical manhandling. Yiu amRegistered a case of assault with CR03/08/2019
My late mum and the hero I have long admired after her passing would be the most happy and proud individual today. My sister Kavekurupa today graduated in honor of Uatavi Petronella Kandiimuine. Bravo my lovely sister and congratulations. You made us all proud 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
An unknown author said: “Letting someone create a false narrative of you is a small price to pay for having rid yourself of their toxicity. Let them say what they want, if you and the most high know the truth, your life will flourish and their lies will rot theirs.” Ends my 2022
Today is my birthday and my cousin Marabo Kazongominja surprised me with this at 00:31am just past midnight and away from home. I am in Grootfontein and will have a small private celebration in this great town later today.
Spent the afternoon inspecting the Katutura Open Markets that are scheduled for reopening. Started off with the Shetu Open Market w Hon Utoni, Shangula, Gov McLeod-Katjirua and Mr Kahimise.
Today my heart ❤️ pours out to COVID19 victims & my special heartfelt prayers are dedicated to all lives lost to this dreaded virus 🦠. Stay Home, Embrace the National Emergency Regulation, Always Social Distance, No sale of Alcohol, Obey the NAM Police 🚔 & Defense Force.
Was in Katjinakatji. Two hostel blocks, a dining hall and a kitchen newly constructed and is ready for handover in two to three months. Not sure who in NAM hasn’t heard of this place?
I will contest for the Swapo Party Leadership position on its Central Committee at the upcoming Swapo Party 7th National Congress. I am mentally and physically prepared to run the race. Colleague delegates i present myself to you for consideration.
We shall overcome COVID19 and indeed we shall. Only if we STAY HOME, ONLY IF WE ALL OBEY THE EMERGENCY REGULATIONS. We all must Practice Social Distancing. The Police and Army are meant to keep us safe and alive during this crisis. Offer total COOPERATION for the safety of ALL
Spent the Sunday in Otjitanda west of Etanga in the Epupa Constituency. The landscape is scorched dry & water supply remains a challenge for the rural communities. Dropped a summary of the situation to cde Schlettwein who wasted no time by directing cde Ngurare to handle it.
Such deeply and scornfully disrespectful insults being hurled publicly against the President, H E Dr Hage G Geingob, is despicably derogatory and intolerably uncalled for in the political discourse of any democracy. You are culturally delinquent and deserve condemnation.
I recorded 95mm of rain about 15min ago today at Farm Sandfontein 468 only and it is still raining ☔️ 🌧. It virtually hasn’t stopped once since starting just after midnight Jan 1, 2021.
To the youth of our country, the present & future are both eras within which the youth has a fundamental role to play. It is so because you are young, full of energy & educated with rationality as your ultimate belief...a fresh energy performs better & ensure growth of society.
Today @ Tukondjeni Open Market. Toured Katutura inspecting whether or not people are complying to the Emergency Regulation. Perhaps the fact that is a Sunday has an effect in itself. Just about everyone I engaged has sanitizers. Masks no, except for the officers I met and myself.
Happy Holidays to All in the Land of the Brave, Colleagues, Family and Friends. I cherish the sincere mutual care and love from all of YOU. I shall soon retreat to a usually HOT 🥵 and pleasant Kalahari Desert little village for my break.
Cde, colleague MP Mr Shixuameni is a long time associate of old to many with long and illustrious history as a founding member of NANSO in the days of student activism during the liberation struggle for freedom. His contribution to freedom is indelible. May his soul Rest In Peace
150 mm in just under 36hrs got reservoirs to spill point, drinking troughs filled up with water and surroundings at cattle drinking facilities are a collection of water pools. The Kalahari was unable to soak it all up at some point. 🌧🌧🌧☔️☔️
This is the supremacist owner of the Opuuo Country Hotel whose condescending and insulting behavior of both to my persona as regular client of his outfit and the Government of the Republic of Namibia. Supremacist of this nature should routed out and exposed for who they are.
Workers are the lifeblood of any economy & thus deserve recognition on this day. I join the NAMIBIAN workers in celebrating this day. The world economy is being wrenched by this dreadful COVID19 virus 🦠 and the Namibian worker is at the centre of it just as much.
At this hour of the morning I find it most enriching to engage in work that involve reading and application of one’s mind without much disturbance that one finds in a normal office setup. The home office is proving best suited for such.
As I retire from so much reading, information sharing and a meeting re the COVID19 outbreak I want to pause for a minute and pay my heartfelt respects to health workers & the men and women in uniform of our country who are at the forefront of it all. My heart goes to you all.
Attended the just completed Extraordinary Central Committee of the Swapo Party. We are United as ever and swung/brandished our best at remaining a UNITED PARTY.
The young lad in blonde was providing drinks at a price. Election observers where at hand to ease emotions at times while all patiently waited for their turn to vote. It’s been near four hours of waiting and still no were near the booth as yet by the time tweeted.
The 31st independence year of Namibia will go down as as one of my best rainy seasons with over 800mm of rainfall since January 1st, 2021. Happy Independence Day to all farmers.
I am not apologetic for my political stance in a democratic rules based Swapo Party constitutional order or dispensation. No amount of ridiculing, name calling, intimidation or bullying will prostitute away my core principled believes in the Swapo Party ideologies & teachings.
Some may disagree with me on what I am about to say but will say it anyway. The former Rt Hon PM cde Nahas Angula amongst many who did, displayed an outstanding atonement towards gravitating the Swapo Party back to unity at the just concluded Policy Conference.
It didn’t matter the ups and downs you may have had as you said. What mattered was to keep finding the best way out of those setbacks and then work hard. A humble, respectful people’s giant. Go well tate J Hellao. Those from the “kasie” will never forget. 😭😭😭😭😭
The reason so many came out to Kamanjab for are the CHILDREN. This day was yours and you truly riled in it. All that hard work is for you the our future leaders. I salute you young warriors. 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Have distributed hand sanitizers to family and friends I could reach yesterday and will continue same today. Have used 300 ml disused plastic bottles filled w sanitizer frm the 20l container. Am providing a 5 liter container for my farm employees as well.
Today was another successful engagement with the Swapo Party rank and file membership, sympathizers and supporters at Warmquelle, in the Kunene Region.
@hagegeingob
Kunene continues to grow in strength and unwavering in the Swapo Party. Viva Cde HGG
Taking a Chopper ride to Luderitz, Kharas Region to engage the public on Green Hydrogen and Ammonia, National Budget Formulation Process awareness. The pristine landscape and geo-tourism potential bears endless possibilities.
Go well President Dr Hage G Geingob, go well my leader, go well the unmatched Statesman, the unmistakeable present figure whatever circumstances I have come to embody. Your mark on my life and that of my family remains indelible. May Your Soul Rest In Eternal Peace
HE Dr Hage G Geingob, I am conveying heartfelt CONGRATULATIONS for what I deem incalculable intelligence, a deeply people anchored empathy, love & care. Yet again NAMIBIANS are victors all thanks to your DEEPLY ROOTED belief & faith in us to resolve our difficult national matters
Your re-election as the President of the Republic of Namibia and Swapo Party as the Governing party is a sign that the Namibian people at large appreciates your leadership. I want to hereby convey my warmest congratulations 🍾 to a well deserved victory.
Go well Dr D Kandjoze. Loosing you so close to our intended meet and greet in order to link the two Kandjoze Clans, the Okatjaveva and Aminius Clans is rather deeply devastating. I cherish the rather few occasions we were able to chat and set out an agenda for our clans. RIP.😭🤭
Spent the entire Sunday April 14th, 2019 on Farm Sandfontein 468 at Buitepos & in the 15 yrs 4 months I have lived on this glorious & peaceful part of our country, i will experience a 1st time total & complete lack of rain for an entire rainy season. The Kalahari is unforgiving
May 4th is a day to honor and remember the senseless killings, destruction and the untold pain inflicted on a people determined to fight for their freedom and liberty. Survivors of that horrific event endure permanent traumatic psycho-social scars.
Recorded 12mm of rain 🌧 in Pioneers Park, Whk Sunday evening. That familiar rain filled clean air off the parched land and dry shrubs is a great reminder of what rain means to most of us in Namibia. Rain 🌧 rain 🌧 rain 🌧 falling rain 🌧
I was humbly privileged to personally exchange greetings with Former President Pohamba and Madam Pohamba at the opening of parliament by HE President Geingob today after which I left for Keetmanshoop, Karas Region for meetings with local leaders and capital projects visits.
For the love of the mass based political organization w the best interest of its tested loyal unwavering rank & file members, supporters & sympathizers, the Swapo Party is holding mini rallies in both the Aminius & Otjombinde Constituencies on Nov 21 & 22, 2019 respectively
The Swapo Party machinery is hard at work and all party rank and file must gear up in all 14 regions and 121 constituencies to hit the campaign and recruitment drive. We must put our differences aside and defend the motherland and the ideals of Solidarity, Freedom and Justice.
Late Cde Alwina Swartbooi was the the first woman to be elected as Vice-President of Nanso. I have learned of her passing on with a great deal of sadness. May Her Soul Rest in Eternal Peace as express my heartfelt to condolences 💐 to her entire family. 😭😭
Differences between rainy seasons between current season March 2024 (left picture) and rainy season March 2021 (right pic) with farmstead in the background.
Conspiracy theories aimed primarily at thwarting Government’s concerted efforts to achieve herd immunity are devilish/diabolical. I stand shoulder to shoulder with efforts fighting against conspiracy theories luring people into not taking the vaccine. It’s SAD.
External factors in the commodities prices markets, frequent and prolonged drought periods continue to expose our economy to downward economic trends while the opportunity to earn foreign currency and gain strong contribution to GDP will continue to decline.
Here on Farm Sandfontein in the Kalahari Desert the rain ☔️ turned the once dry landscape into a carpet of lush green offshoots. The air quality is most clean and fresh. Need more rain.
My post COVID19 recovery period is standing at 24 days since. I will be vaccinated (especially now that I learned it no longer requires the 90+ days post recovery) and shall post my certificate on this platform and many others. Watch this space!!
Today marks the official end of the mourning period of the passing late Agnes Kapenangumui Hindjou. The ritual is marked by the slaughtering of three cows and all this takes place before the sun rises.
The natural resources industries account for much of the Namibian economic growth over the many decades of steady growth. It’s fact! Going forward, structural vulnerabilities in our economy remain a source of concern because growth primarily relies on these sectors.
Today is a remarkable but colorfully decorated day by the presence of the full strength, dedication & lifelong commitment of the Swapo Party to the people of Namibia through its current & legacy leadership. Your flock shall unwaveringly march alongside you,cde President HGG.
1. stay at home; 2. practice social distancing; 3. avoid large crowds; 4. wash your hands & save lives; 5. Cooperate w NAMPOL & NDF - they are saving lives by enforcing National Emergency Regulations; 6. Honor the brave men & women in the health sector
Opposition divisionist parties offer only division and are blame focused. Have no zero Governance experience, riding on negativism and are opportunistic. The fallacy that administrations globally are picture perfect is far from the truth
The 10000 ha allocated for the production of maize, tobacco & fodder in the Zambezi Region was awarded meticulously within legal, business, commercial & community consultations requirements. EIA, ECC, renewable lease period within legal stipulations are the conditions precedent.
Stay Home is the reasonable thing to do. Protect fellow Namibians & Work from Home. Cease all alcohol consumption & you will save lives. The Commander-in-Chief Pres Dr Hage G Geingob has commanded.
Received sincere, kind and best wishes on Aug 9th from many friends, colleagues and associates. Gathered with friends and family to celebrate my birthday. Thank you to all who made it worth the while.
It’s been long & treacherous undertaking as @ the date H E Dr HGG’s directed the Special Cabinet Committee to find solutions to eliminate all congestions at the HKIA in the interest of the million plus tourist who visit our country. The ground breaking ceremony is held today.
Got the first Sinopharm jab today. It’s an hour later now and cannot report any notable after effects yet. Pls do get vaccinated. The vaccine will safe us all from the dreadful virus 🦠.
Today was a brisk day filled with bilaterals and one-on-one discussions between Heads of States and Governments. Overall the setup enabled Presidents to engage directly and more openly with almost all in the Conference Lounges.
I was moved by the senior citizen in the picture below who was deeplycommitted to cast her vote regardless of her physical circumstances. This embodies the love for one’s country and the dedication for peace and stability. I am deeply moved.
This was a weekend full of activities. A funeral in Ondangwa, Leaders Assigned District Exec Conferences Kunene Region, a vehicle breakdown with Monday spending time sorting out plans of how to be back in town for Tuesday’s Cabinet. I am on my way.
School ablution and hostel facilities are under renovation country wide & were possible new facilities are being constructed. I inspected ongoing work at the Mariental High, Sonop & Mariental Primary schools & proceeded to the Rietquelle High School & Chief Kutako Primary School
Kunene Region has been reignited in its resolve to do more. Kunene Region is rejuvenated in its reservoir of hope for a better life for all, a better future & that His Excellency Dr Hage G Geingob’s
@hagegeingob
caring& people centered Government. Harambee is profound 💪🏿💪🏿.
“Cabinet collective responsibility, or collective ministerial responsibility, is a constitutional convention in Parliamentary systems that members of the cabinet must publicly support all governmental decisions made in Cabinet, even if they privately disagree”. Providing context.
Principal (red tie) has cash in Bank. Works inspectors (guys in shades) pass blame on why fitting an electric pump in borehole has not been done. Rural water refute custom blame passing by Works. School has no water for 8 months. Directed purchase & fitting by Thursday next week
The economic cost of climate change as a direct consequence of human activity at a global level manifests itself to every Namibia especially so the most vulnerable in the form of flooded roads, flooded homes, schools and potential outbreak waterborne diseases post the rain period
The rumored mass exodus from both the Erongo and Khomas Regions represent a potential setback in the strategy to contain the spread of the Corona virus 🦠. How unfortunate.
Potential Green Hydrogen & Ammonia nascent industries in Namibia is taking institutional global investors by storm. Interest in Namibia’s offering was truly phenomenal. Side Events and networking lunches on GH&A at the UNGA was attended in great numbers. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
The APRM Workshop in Cape Town was worth the while and highly productive. Shared floor w Former Statistician Gen of RSA, Hon Ayanda Dlodlo, Former Min Dr Geraldine Fraser-Moleketi and many others.
The air is filled with death and all around us. The feeling of desperation and thoughts of “what next” is slowly setting in. Across all cultures, religions, political ideologies and creeds the past week has been rather painful. May your Souls Rest In Peace. 😭😭😭
3rd National Policy Conference of the Swapo Party. Party Stalwarts, Leaders, organizers and rank and file stood out in profound decency in honor of unity and respect. It was an eminent conference regardless. 🙏🏿🙏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Today I shall participate in Namibia’s Economic Summit as both a Presenter & Panelist on Promoting Namibia as the Preferred Investment Destination. Government in the wisdom of HE Dr HGG continues to reach out to citizens & the 🌍 in the quest to deliver on its promise & service.
The newly launched Kunene Region Education Fund stormed on to the scene hitting the ground running with a massive N$1,400,000.00 cash and in kind pledges from both the public and private sectors. His Excellencies Government is a cari g Government, it’s Government for the people.
