Namibia should speak for its brothers in Zimbabwe


"Without moral and intellectual independence, there is no anchor for national independence." - David Ben-Gurion

Namibia has a duty to speak out against all acts that deprive any individual of their fundamental human rights. The first line of the preamble to our Constitution states “Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is indispensable for freedom, justice and peace;”

It is therefore the duty of each Namibian citizen, and all our political leaders to show moral leadership in our undertakings with all countries of the world.

A new advertising campaign for The Zimbabwean highlights the newspaper's role in giving a voice to the people of Zimbabwe. The posters feature images taken by photojournalists who have worked in the country over the last two years, and direct viewers to the newspaper's website, where the photographers describe the circumstances in which the shots were taken.
