Sheehama to host fund-raising concert

Celebrated Namibian artist Ras Sheehama is gearing up to host ‘Friends of Ras Sheehama’, a fund-raising concert, on Saturday, 23 December, at Nakayale near Outapi. With a vision to uplift communities and foster unity, Sheehama told tjil he aims to launch a trust designed to address Namibians’ fundamental needs."This is my way of giving back to the community," the seasoned artist said."Often, schools and orphanages seek assistance, and our inability as artists to support without corporate aid has been a hurdle, hence I am creating a trust to alleviate these struggles."Sheehama mentioned that the trust isn&#039;t confined to a singular purpose - he envisions it providing voice training to budding artists, extending beyond Windhoek to nurture talent countrywide. “My commitment to community development echoes in this upcoming fund-raising concert. Doors will open at 18:00, welcoming attendees to an evening of musical magic starting at 19:00. Tickets are available at Oluzizi Service Station, priced at N$200, with platinum suite options for N$1 000.” A tangible differenceSheehama enlisted the talents of Exit, Cota Mushe, AJ and Buju Kachoko to support him at the concert."The festive season keeps many artists occupied, but I&#039;m thankful for those committed to supporting me," he shared.Emphasising the show’s charitable aim, he encouraged attendance, highlighting its role as a fundraiser. "We aim not just to entertain, but to make a tangible difference in our communities," he said.Summing up the conversation with tjil, Sheehama shared his Christmas message to the nation, which isn&#039;t confined to the concert stage; it extends to the heart of Namibia. "One Namibia, one nation," he declared fervently. Denouncing tribalism as a divisive affliction, he further urged unity. "Tribalism is a disease; I hate it. I believe in unity. This December, my message to all Namibians is to reach out to your family and spread love.”
