๐จ๐บ Fidel Castro in Harlem (1995): "For 15 years, we were in Africa, fighting apartheid until the very end. There was a moment when the war was practically lost. We sent many of our best divisions. When we arrived there, a great crisis was unfolding. It was then that the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale took place.
Do you know how many troops Cuba sent to Angola at that moment? 55,000 volunteer soldiers...
At the United Nations, they donโt speak about that.
We hear countless speeches applauding the independence of African countries โ as if it were the work and miracle of the United Nations!
They talk about the end of apartheid โ as if it were the work and miracle of the United Nations!
*Crowd laughs*"
The question should be:
Who started the banning first? SA is behaving like America in AFRIKA! SA thought we could not match them regarding their rogue posture.
"Must"? SA's sense of entitlement to dicate our policy positions is delicious! We implemented the ban on the importation of SOME vegetables & fruits from SA to protect local producers & promote self-sufficiency in food security, and we will continue to do so. Make peace with it.
@ObserverNamibia Firstly, is it true?
Secondly, was it reported to the relevant authorities for action?
Thirdly, are you saying it could not be an opposition who pulled such a stunt, or was it verified that SWAPO is at fault.
Fourthly, why is it always about rigging and not just incompetence?
SWAPO stands Ndjikiti
The elections in Botswana went the way it went. Some are dreaming that what happened in Botswana could happen in Namibia. But it is a dream. In their slumber, they are forgetting a few differences. Namibia has the first female presidential candidate fielded by SWAPO. She is a unifier and she is a mother for all. Over the last 2 years the SWAPO Party, and indeed the nation, has united around her. The opposition in Botswana built a coalition aligned to the former President Ian Khama. The fight was between Masisi and Khama. None of that happened in Namibia and none of that will happen in Namibia.
The SWAPO Party in 2024 is a fortress, united and walking in step behind its presidential candidate. We stand Ndjikiti. All around the country, on a weekly basis, we see many mini rallies, door to door campaigns and mobilization activities. We have handled our differences maturely. The opposition in Namibia is fragmented like the wind of Alaska. There is nothing they can say which we have not addressed. That is why our manifesto speaks to unity in diversity. It speaks to equitable distribution of wealth of Namibia to benefit all Namibians.
Today is Friday and you will see, once again, SWAPO party going to the people and talking about bread and butter issues . As it has been doing since February with the door to door campaigns, the SWAPO Party will be spreading the gospel of the manifesto in door to door, household to household, town to town, constituency to constituency, region per region and at our Mini and Regional Star Rallies. With Netumbo our future is in safe hands. Vote SWAPO and Vote Netumbo #VoteSWAPOย #VoteNetumbo
This is a huge achievement for humanity. Yet we ought to keep in mind that the day we become God's who are independent from JEHOVAH will be the day the LORD will end humanity.
Getting closer to GOD is nearer through every successful discovery/intervention...
The Blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see.
Provided the visual cortex is intact, it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time.
To set expectations correctly, the vision will be at first be low resolution, like Atari graphics, but eventually it has the potential be better than natural vision and enable you to see in infrared, ultraviolet or even radar wavelengths, like Geordi La Forge.
Much appreciated, @US_FDA!
This is one of the most absurd reasons I have ever heard. Does this mean that we only have a mindset of getting educated to be employed and not necessarily to be LITERATE in our lives?
The University of Namibia (Unam) is reducing its intake of education students to address the oversupply of education graduates in the job market.
This move, according to Unam spokesperson Simon Namesho, is part of a broader effort to align

A fatal accident occurred about 60 kilometres north of Otjiwarongo on the B1 road when a minibus overturned with multiple occupants in it.
Preliminary information at the scene indicates one person has died and many have serious injuries.
Ambulances are on the scene to assist the injured, and paramedics are also busy resuscitating a critically injured person on the scene before attempting to transport him.

I watched his interview, twice, on CBS 60 Minutes program. He is frighteningly predicting that Artificial Intelligence might take over human beings; in all aspects. Sounds scary!

Africa is divided into over 55 countries, with different currencies. This makes it hard for trade between African countries.
If I wanna buy Cocoa from Ivory coast, I'll have to change my money into US dollars (giving US 5-10% of my money), they I will probably have to turn the dollars into euro, losing another 5-10% of my capital to eur0pe, then change my euro into ivorian franc, again losing another 5-10% of my money to the french treasury.
If I started with about South African rand of 1000, by the time I am purchasing cocoa in Ivory coast, my money will be worth only rands 650 to 700, the other rand 300 will be in the hands of US and Europe.
Gaddafi wanted to get rid of this and replace it with Gold DINAR (An African currency) for doing business in Africa without changing the value
