This is my mother and me at our homestead at Katjinakatji. Today is my 50th birthday. It all began with her 50 years ago. She carried me and watched over my first faltering steps into our peasant life. My father left us 9 years ago. On this day, I celebrate them both!

One of the painful tragedies about FISHROT scandal is that while schools and hospitals are falling apart, a handful of well connected Namibians including lawmakers decided to greedily exchange millions for fun. This scar of betrayal will take years to heal! Good night Namibia 🇳🇦

As SWAPO members (and by extension as Namibians) we must never politically celebrate appointment of people because they are our tribesmen or women. Let's celebrate appointments on the basis that whoever is appointed is qualified and is competent. That is my one cent opinion.
