Deutschland über alles, oder waß?

I know some of you will hate me for my in-your-face remark but come Sunday, some of us will be taking out the cooler box and have every reason to pop the goodies that are brewed according to the German Reinheitsgebott – you know what I mean. 

After what our cousins from ‘Deutschland über alles’ did to the Samba Boys at the World Cup, I am confident that they will take the loot come Sabbath day.  

Unfortunately the most popular sport on earth is coming to an end but I must say for the first time in our history, Namibian women took an interest in the game. 

I could not believe my eyes when I saw a full girlie panel of Brazilian-haired chicas on national television the other day doing their thing. You go girls! 

I am sure that next time the World Cup is held, here in Nams, the outjies won’t threaten us with the remote control again. 

We didn’t complain one bit – as a matter of fact, very few cases of gender-based violence (GBV) were reported during this time. 

Omake, omake as our Prime Minister, Dr Hage Geingob, would say.

But while we are at it, please be careful how you celebrate the pre-victory party this weekend, because not everyone is happy. 

As a matter of fact, I am not sure how many of you are pissed off. I wanted to go buy my German flag to mount on my German engineered Golfie but heish, with even Facebook being so quiet like a church mouse after Wednesday’s demolishment of the Oranje brothers from the Netherlands, I don’t think it’s a nxa idea.

Please take care, especially if you are going to makiti at night in the bars or clubs. You may know by now that we have been declared an angry nation that needs healing and because of that some balookas won’t mind stepping on your toes just to prove a point. I also heard that 04h00 in the morning is “injury time.”

If you must go out, please make sure that before the clock strikes 04h00, you leave the entertainment spot, because someone has been watching how you are dishing out drinks to the kamborotos. You can only imagine what the omshashos are thinking at that time of the night: “Eish, we have been “pocketing” people all day without success, but one or the other time this club must close and they must come out one by one.

We might have exhausted the topic on Brazilian hair, but be very careful if you are donning the hair at night. They knock you unconscious and cut the hair off with an okapi. Then when someone tries to enquire what happened to the knocked out girl, as the tsotsi is kama trying to revive you, you will hear him saying, “I told you my sweetie not to drink so much”. 

I heard some of you are planning to go wait for the German team at Frankfurt airport to confiscate the trophy and demand that they pay our reparation money. 

I know emotions are running high, but Deutschland über alles, oder waß? 

Sorry Ngo!
