@Filemon_Fly Exactly! Seems like MPs do not understand that the Constitution ended the old days of parliamentary supremacy.

@NamTimeTraveler Sounds like a pretty normal day to me! 😉

@NamPresidency Seriously now, if Germany invited you to a conference in 1940, after its invasion of Poland, France, etc, would you have accepted with a clear conscience? Let's not be ignorant about history! (PS: Be careful of Mr Putin's polonium tea if you do go, by the way.)

@NamPresidency @hagegeingob Hope you reminded the Russian envoy that his country is engaged in an illegal war involving the killing of civilians and intentional destruction of civilian infrastructure. All while repressing free speech and political opponents back home.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

Having carefully considered the matter, I have once more come to the conclusion that not only should the Russian warship go screw itself, but Vladimir Putin and his nuclear threats should go do so, too. 🖕 ☮️

Namibians supporting peace and international law protested against Bush & Blair's illegal war in Iraq at the US diplomatic mission in 2003.
Now, for ease of reference, Russia's embassy in Namibia is at the corner of Jan Jonker Road & Christian Street in Windhoek. #StopWar

@MargieOrford @Joannechocolat So very sorry to have heard of her passing. Best wishes to her family and friends in this sad time.

@GwenLister1 I thought that's what Twitter does!

For the last six years I’ve kept a spreadsheet listing every parking spot I’ve used at the local supermarket in a bid to park in them all. This week I completed my Magnum Opus! A thread.

Namibian media reporting on rape cases, PLEASE start to take note. From the Combating of Rape Act of 2000:

“no person shall publish in any manner whatever any information which might reveal the identity of any complainant in the proceedings”.

Thank you.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

@Uerikoravi The Namibian publishes the names and photos of accused persons on an almost daily basis – once they have appeared in court and if we have a photo of them available. Don't try to score cheap shots.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

@drumkingpiu Again I note this focus on skin colour.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

Having noted a hysterical rush to judgement against @TheNamibian today I can safely but regretfully conclude that the old apartheid leaders would've been proud of current Namibian wannabe radicals' embrace of racial classification and focus on people's skin colour.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

@Kaathikepamwe It was an error and it's been explained. Your rush to judgement is noted.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

@EnosMcManni @TheNamibian Still bitter because they refused to give you a job? But with such bad grammar I'm really not surprised.

[Werner Menges @WernerMenges]

Former fisheries minister Bernhard Esau and some of his amigos were back in the dock in the Windhoek Magistrate's Court on charges of corruption, fraud and money laundering today. Should I guess this photo means "Viva, Swapo, Viva!"?

Rampant conspiracy theorists, think of this a bit, if you can:

@_pandulana Don't worry, he's not the leader of the free world. Angela Merkel is. #Mutti
