Dear 53 African Nations,
Brothers and sisters of the Mother Continent,
hear this cry from the heart of Africa!
World Cup is the most prestigious soccer competition in the world where nations clash and legacies are forged, we must rise as one unbreakable force.
You do not turn your back on family because of a misunderstanding. You do not abandon your own blood when the world is watching and strangers circle like vultures.
As my Yoruba elders would say: “Omo éni o ni sé idibebere, kawa fi ileke si idi omo elomi.”
Translation: One does not neglect to adorn one’s own child’s waist with beads only to place them on a stranger’s child.
Charity begins at home....we defend our own first!)Chinua Achebe saw this day coming when he warned: “When brothers fight to the death, strangers take over their inheritance.”
Today, that stranger is Mexico. While some voices genuinely so have the right to be angry because of the recent Afrophobic attacks on other Africans across the 53 countries.
We must refuse to be blinded by short-term grudges.... and support Mexico.
That's betrayal with every drop of our ancestral blood! We are 54 nations, one soul, one destiny. From the Sahara to the Cape, from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean, our teams, our players, our fans, our flags must stand together against any outsider who dares to divide us.
Supporting Mexico in this moment is not wisdom... it is self-inflicted defeat. It is handing our inheritance to those who have shown contempt for African lives on their soil.
We have a sacred duty to teach the world... and especially our South African brothers and sisters ....what Ubuntu truly means:
I am because we are.
Families do not turn on one another.
Families do not betray their own to cheer for an outsider. Families close ranks, lift each other up, and roar as one when the battle horn sounds.
This is our World Cup moment.
This is our time to show the planet that Africa is not fragmented, not fractured, not for sale.
We must Support every African team. We must support Bafana Bafana against Mexico. Let our voices shake the stadiums.
Let our unity be louder than any referee’s whistle. Let the world see that when Africa stands together, no stranger can divide or conquer us. Africa to the World! One Continent. One Victory. One Family. In unbreakable solidarity,
Please guys, let's support South Africa. Get your vuvuzela and let's focus on this competition for now. We will come back to the mess they have made with their Afrophobic attacks.
But we ain't turning their back on them..lest we become what we are complaining they are doing.
I am [name redacted], Angolan to the core, born in Huíla Province, in the municipality of Lubango, and I live near the SWAPO Cemetery 🪦.
Speaking about these Angolan children who wander around Namibian cities and towns begging for money, I have the following to inform:
These children are from the "Ovamuila" ethnic group, and they live in Huíla Province, in the municipality of Humpata (MPHATA), in the locality of Bata-Bata (Mbata Vata). This population is rich in cattle and goats, and has a lot of cereals. They are not poor, they are rich. But they are very greedy.
They don’t like to spend their wealth often, they prefer to send their children to the streets of certain cities to beg for money, and in the end they accumulate large sums of money from begging.
Here in Huíla Province, at all tourist sites, bakeries, supermarkets, and ATMs, the presence of these children is constant. They are irritating, they don’t let tourists enjoy their outings in peace. They are always asking. The city of Lubango where I work is currently rounding them all up and sending them to a shelter, but the parents then show up and take them out of there, and send them to Namibia. They target tourist spots in the city, their presence is still noticeable.
They are people who reject school education. In the areas where they live, the schools are abandoned and empty because they don’t want to study.
I’m not saying this out of emotion, I’m saying it because it is the reality. Therefore, you Namibians, if you continue giving money to these children, you will be encouraging them to keep up this practice. Never try to adopt them, because that is not the main focus of their parents. The parents’ main objective is for them to beg for money and then hand the money over to their parents. Whoever tries to adopt them will regret it. Because this is a very complicated tribe.
That’s all from me, I hope you haven’t misunderstood me.

I'm unconcerned how this tweet will make you feel by the time you finish reading it.
I hope young people copy one example from Job other than just studying further. If you just continue collecting qualifications blindly, you'll end up with many qualifications you can't use at once because they don't compliment each other, looking like a mad man who goes from one dustbin to another, collecting all sorts of cana and plastics just to carry.
Job studied one course up to PHD level, then added a complementary PGD for a lawmaker that he is.
We have people in this country with hundreds of qualifications: 3 Honours, 2 Masters, a PHD, 3 PGD, 5 certificates, all in 6 different fields. That's not education but an academically lost person.
The concept of making things work with few resources is constant everywhere - resourcefulness. If you aren't useful with a few qualifications, you won't be useful with many. It's a sign you are not resourceful and haven't figured out your purpose.
We have been fooled to believe those with the most qualifications are the most intelligent. That's a lie. Many are not convinced they're intelligent enough so they study to hide that shallowness behind qualifications.
As we study further, let's choose complimentary qualifications/fields. After all, qualifications in 1 or 2 fields never just cover 1 or 2 fields. They overlap with many other fields. You'd always find an Accounting module in non-Accounting programmes, or a Commercial Law or Economics course in other programmes.
If you need to study every course to understand everything, you're that mad man, and you'd realize many with qualification poitjies can't do much productive with them; even just to write a book.
NB: The most useful people in this country have 1 or 2-field qualifications, complimented maybe by a people/project/business (etc.) management qualification.
In April 2021 I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Biochemistry Honours, and today I graduated with a Bachelor of Pharmacy Honours, all from UNAM...
The aim was to get two honours degrees before age of 28 and I just did. God 🙏😭🔥🔥
Hi everyone
Since 2022, my life has changed completely. I’ve spent the past few years in and out of hospital, trying to get through each day.
I’m currently battling a life-threatening condition, and I’m now preparing to undergo a transplant in South Africa.
If you had to pick a Namibian lawyer to defend you (hypothetically 😅), who’s your first call?

If approved, this will increase Excess Male Mortality. Men are going to die more than they died during the Herero & Nama Genocide, War of Liberation Struggle, Donkerhoek and Ongwediva combined - more than they die from car accidents, alcohol, suicides and men on men violence. We will die more than we die from snake bites and scorpion stings. After passing that law, might as well put us in a ditch and throw bombs in there.
