My name is Anton Geinub, and I am 33 years old. I was born and raised in Leonardville, a small village in the Omaheke region of Namibia that is more dust and dreams than anything else. Growing up here, I have seen the sun rise over endless farmlands, watched my parents and grandparents bend their...
Truth is that we did not come into this world as empty shells and voids that need to be filled. We came here divinely prepared and ready, not only to explore and learn, but to express and gift this world with blessings it may not have seen before. So, when we find ourselves in conflict...

Namibia is a nation rich in land, resources, and human potential, yet we remain heavily dependent on goods produced elsewhere.

For decades, we have seen crowds enthusiastically clapping for beautifully crafted speeches only to get people emotionally uplifted while their livelihoods drown in filth. To add insult to...
Approximately 54 days have passed since Namibia’s regional and local authority elections concluded last year, and the newly elected councillors and regional representatives are gradually settling into office.
