What the Namibian people celebrated this week
Namibia, from where I write this week, celebrated its 15th Anniversary of Independence on Monday (21 March). On that day, the first President, Sam Nujoma, ended his third term of office by handing over the Presidency to his elected replacement, Hifikepunya Pohamba.Leave us alone
This is a response to Thomas Bisinger’s letter which appeared in the edition of March 23 titled “Open letter to President Mogae”.
Who in the blue hell does Bisinger think he is? I am sick and tired of all these moral freaks telling us what to do and not do.We miss our president
When President Festus Mogae inherited the presidency of the Republic of Botswana in 1998, political commentators and media publications described him as an extremely pompous economist, an incorrigible vanity, an unsocialable man, and fanatical snob.Botswana’s stand on peer review unconvincing
Appearing on a Btv current affairs programme last weekend, Minister Mompati Merafhe, repeated the government’s strange argument that the peer review mechanism of NEPAD duplicates what the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and other international institutions are already doing.
