BREAKING: Just hours after Trump told Oil Tankers to enter the Strait of Hormuz, regardless of Iran's threats, an oil tanker is reportedly targeted and decimated by Iran in the Persian Gulf, just past the Strait of Hormuz. Trump's horrific advice may have just gotten people killed.

@GipfN @NamRA_org_na Thank you for the response which I saw too late. Will we be able to get the outcome of the consultations?

@BienceG @NamRA_org_na Dear @BienceG, the sessions are being held at the Khomas Regional Council Hall. Our final session takes place tomorrow from 08h00 to 15h00 at the Khomas Regional Council Hall. We strongly encourage all our pensioners to join us for this important engagement.🤝

The GIPF is hosting a 2-day Post-Retirement Engagement Session on 24th and 26th February 2026 to engage pensioners on Fund benefits, medical aid processes, and compliance with the Namibia Revenue Agency, @NamRA_org_na. The Fund remains committed to supporting retired members by safeguarding pension savings, strengthening business processes, and protecting investments to ensure long-term financial security. #GIPFNamibia #ToGuardandToGrow

@SilentlySirs If the United States and the West truly care about the people of Iran and are genuinely concerned about their situation, why don’t they lift all the sanctions so that the Iranian people can at least experience some relief and peace?

@Zwelinzima1 AI

Imagine our president making such drastic and dramatic announcements! Never!

@Dangerousgroun2 Just peel it up till you discover what's beneath the layers

When life gives me onions what should I do?

In an ever-evolving world, ethics remain the cornerstone of trust and accountability. As GIPF commemorated 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 under the theme “Ethics Re-envisioned,” we proudly introduced our new Whistleblower Platform, a safe, confidential, and transparent channel empowering employees and stakeholders to speak up without fear. We were honoured to be joined by the Right Honourable Prime Minister Elijah Ngurare, @ngurare, and Advocate Bience Gawanas, @BienceG, whose insightful reflections reinforced our shared commitment to ethical governance and nation-building. #GIPFNamibia #ToGuardandToGrow #EthicsReenvisioned #GlobalEthicsDay

@excelduru Elite

I need a dog name that sounds like it comes from a wealthy family!

@ML3democrats The Noble Peace prize has just lost its nobility

He lost to a woman. Drop a 💙if you are happy

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela. It should inspire those engaged in similar struggles around the world - and remind those of us lucky enough to live in America that we have a solemn responsibility to constantly preserve and defend our own hard-won democratic traditions.

@GwenLister1 @NBCDigitalNews Has Miss Namibia pageant become a national treasure? It should have remained in private hands as is the case in many countries.

@NBCDigitalNews Nope. And ‘Stanely’ has better things to do with his time. Jeez.

The Director General of the nbc, Stanely Similo, has urged Namibians to appreciate the Miss Namibia National Costume and the creative aspect of it. nbcnews.na/node/108120 #NBCNews #nbcdigitalnews #nbcDSTV282 #nbcGOtv20 #nbcPlusApp

@GwenLister1 Gwen indeed he was to the best of my knowledge a servant of his people. We were comrades and students in the UK sharing platforms to mobilise support for our struggles. His passion was industrial relations and labour. RIP my comrade and friend

Rest well, Gov. I admired your generosity of spirit (you flew up to Namibia at own cost to attend a school fundraiser I’d invited you to address because you believed in supporting education) and we had some great conversations and good laughs over the years. #RIPTitoMboweni

@DrRHatchett @AureliaFNguyen @CEPIvaccines @gavi Congratulations my dearest Aurelia. Moving up and onwards. Are you still going to be in Geneva. Time for a catch up. Will be in Geneva in October

I am thrilled to announce that global health expert @AureliaFNguyen will be joining @CEPIvaccines as our new Deputy CEO on October 1. Aurélia comes from @gavi and brings a wealth of experience from both the multilateral and private sectors to what is going to be a critical role. cepi.net/cepi-appoints-…

@Megatron_ron Is it not the same country that wanted SA to arrest Bashir?

NEW: 🇮🇱🇺🇲 John Kirby said that they do not care that the International Court of Justice is looking for Netyanahu with a warrant and that despite the fact that he is a war criminal, they consider him a friend of the United States: “We don’t agree with the ICC. Netanyahu, is an ally, a partner and a friend.”

@aishapandor You have a mum to be rightfully proud of. I admire her cool headedness, intellect and clear articulation of issues. I had the opportunity to collaborate with her when she was Minister of Science and Technology and as Minister of International Relations. She served with humility.

My mom has been an ANC member and activist for all of my life. I share a birthday with the ANC, and for most of my life, I proudly spent Jan 8th with other family or friends, while my parents served the party. Since I was almost 9 years old, she has served as a member of South Africa’s democratic government. During those three decades, she has led with dedication, integrity, intelligence, wisdom, a love for her country, and a focus on principles, those held high by her religion, upbringing, country and party. Yesterday I told her for the countless time, how much I love her, how much she inspires me and how proud I am of her. I’m excited for this next stage in her life, which I know will be anything but idle. It will undoubtedly be focussed on creating positive impact and on continuing to champion the causes of the underserved, voiceless and powerless. I’m also hoping that as by far the most hardworking person I’ve ever met, she finally takes a bit of well-deserved time for rest. Very proud and grateful daughter, and hopeful for SA. May our country and people be blessed with peace, unity, growth and prosperity 🇿🇦

@HenningMelber Agree fully

Another horrific hate crime following the homophobic outburst last year in Namibia. It's an election year: political parties, what do you have to say, after you advocated and supported homophobia in the National Assembly?

Brazilian President Lula will increase donations to the UN agency for Palestinian Refugees.

Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor states that the South Africans serving in the IOF will be prosecuted. A number of soldiers have been identified and cases have been lodged. The South African government are not required to be "Pro-Palestine" to prosecute these mercenaries. It only requires upholding the law.
