Dimbulukeni Nauyoma – fate or wrong turn?

Sometimes fate works with time, and Dimbulukeni Nauyoma, at 33, has the advantage of time. Unless, of course, his fate is that of the Biblical Aaron, who, for some reason, was struck by God before entering the Promised Land.

Windhoek councillors won’t accept blame for Volker’s death

By Mike Omuodo A phone vibration drew my attention to an incoming message—a friend had sent a message with an attachment and a note reading, “This is so sad and needs to stop! The message was followed by some crying emojis. Curious, I opened the attachment.
