Editor, please allow me to respond to your article, Editor’s Corner dated March 22. Your question was why should the Rally for Democracy and Progress (RDP) only come up now with alternative policies, after the party’s formation in 2007?

The term ‘alternative’ sounds better and thereof I should use it in this subject matter. The media should at all times be non-biased in their comments and reporting. Read more about In defence of RDP’s alternative policies’ timing

The case has been postponed to a future date for further investigation. I have enlisted the services of a legal practitioner, Norman Tjombe to attend to the matter and provide me with the necessary professional legal advice. Read more about Neka boss confirms drunk driving arrest

The Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM) strongly believes that a lasting solution should be found to address the plight of the struggle kids in this country. It is regrettable that the struggle kids have developed an "entitlement syndrome" that has been watered and nurtured by the Swapo leadership over the years.
