A candidate for President must be a natural born citizen and at least 35 years old in Namibia. A blonde girl argued it was unfair to require the candidate to be a natural born citizen. "What makes a natural born citizen more qualified to be President than one born by C-Section?"
Good morning

. Shame on you. You reported on the coronation and ignoring the very important news of the day yesterday. We know who sent you.

Every country should be governed by laws. I doubt there is a country where foreigners would just walk in and choose jobs at the expense of locals. There are many expatriates that resides in Namibia by the way - mostly Zimbabweans.

Menzies’ behaviour is deplorable. Can you imagine Paragon doing this in the UK? They first remind you are African and you must stay in your country. Well done Namibia Airports Company for finally taking the necessary action!

When you are asked to introduce yourself by name, what are you supposed to say? Whatever your answer is, I do not think it should not include “Hon” or “Dr” etc. Titles are not (part of) names. It should be sufficient to say “my name is Audrin Mathe”!
As a patriot, you must love your country, not just when they do well, but also when they fall short. Well done Brave Warriors 🇳🇦. You earned your place at

Eight hundred seventy entries were received. Three designs were shortlisted: Don Stevenson, Ortrud Clay and Theo Jankowski - all Namibians. The current flag is a combination of the three designs. Constituent Assembly adopted the final design of the flag on 2 February 1990.

The Defence Force should never delve into partisan politics. There were insults from both ends. That is what campaigns are about. Not even in 1989 did the role of the army more pronounced. Please stay in the barracks. We the people will decide on the leadership question.
Dear HEAVENLY FATHER, everywhere I WALK, let it be on your PATH. Everything I SEE, let it be through your EYES. Everything I DO, let it be your WILL. For every HARDSHIP I face, let me place it in your HANDS. Every emotion I FEEL, let it be your SPIRIT moving in me

The problem with the youth is that we want to advance our careers by badmouthing others. We become a better nation when we are tolerant of different views. As Jon Meachem said “Disagreement is the oxygen of democracy”.

Namibia is not owned by anybody. Many lives were lost during the struggle for independence. You will not see any Namibian talking about Zambia in the manner that you offend our sensibility!
Update from the media briefing on the State Funeral: The procession will start at State House. From State House, the procession will proceed via Laurent Desire Kabila Street – Robert Mugabe Avenue- Jan Jonker Street -Rehobother Rd - David Hosea Meroro Road -
Jerry Ekandjo makes history to become the first person to successfully table a Private Member’s bill after Kosie Pretorius of MAG tried the same in the last decade!

This is the first time swapo and its candidate have won with reduced mandate. In each election cycle, swapo and its presidential candidates have increased their support. The curse that has befallen other liberation movements has suddenly visited on us. This can be turned around.
Happy Independence Day fellow Namibians. Our country was conceived on the proposition that all people are equal as a constitutional injunction

I don't think the message must be that Parliament has been suspended. Rather Parliamentary sittings are suspended. Suspension of Parliament carries a different meaning.
