@Joe__Bassey Do you understand the term "setback" 🤣

Namibia 🇳🇦 said Monday it had rejected a request by billionaire Elon Musk's Starlink to operate its satellite internet services in the country, marking a second setback for the company in southern Africa.

@matinyarare Asi cheque yako for work done on propaganda didn't clear 😅😂

𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗪𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗢𝗡 𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗗𝗦? Yesterday, I was threatened for having insulted the President by saying that his performance in office has been mediocre for us to grant him a term extension. But how would you rate the President if: 1. Under Robert Mugabe, in his first 20 years in office, he built 9,000 km of new paved roads from the 10,000 km left by Ian Smith. 2. Currently, President Mnangagwa has, in the last 9 years, paved and rebuilt 80% of the existing 584 km of the Harare–Beitbridge road, and it is still not finished. 3. He has also been refurbishing and extending 45 km of the Mazowe Road. I would say that the 45km are entirely new. 4. He has also built about 90 km of road in and around Mount Hampden and has been refurbishing about 300 km in cities and Victoria Falls road. 5. This means that, in 9 years, the President has refurbished and built about 1,200 km (6.3%) of roads out of the 19,000 km of paved roads in Zimbabwe, which are in desperate disrepair. 6. The money required to fix all Zimbabwean roads, at an average of about $1 million per kilometre, is approximately $17.4 billion. Where will it come from? Is the President’s performance on roads and raising money to fix them: excellent, good, average, bad, or poor? How many more roads can he fix between now and 2030 at the current pace of 130km per year and the perpetual electioneering for 2030 that has stopped all real work? Tomorrow we will look at healthcare, water, sanitation, electricity and other indicators.

@AfricaFactsZone To get the facts right " Namibia wanted 51% ownership of Starlink" according to their National Domestic Development Empowerment Policy." Nothing to do with security or sovreignity.

Namibia has rejected Starlink's application for a license to operate in the country.

@Alias_is_Boss @TheNamibian Fair enough

@TrustusM @TheNamibian We will change at our own terms. Don’t worry with us.

BREAKING NEWS ... The Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (Cran) has declined the application of billionaire Elon Musk’s satellite internet company Starlink to operate in Namibia. Cran spokesperson Mufaro Nesongano confirmed this on Monday following the Government Gazette of 23 March. "The authority resolved to decline the award of a class comprehensive telecommunications service licence for Starlink Internet Services Namibia (Pty) Limited," the gazette reads. Update: Martin Endjala

@krissy45616031 @TheNamibian But I am not

@TrustusM @TheNamibian And your people are there hustling hard selling their wares,brooms and mobs

Namibia and Botswana have discussed implementing no-stop border posts to facilitate seamless trade and the smooth movement of people. namibian.com.na/nam-botswana-w…

@MegaFunTweets @TheNamibian You killed me on this one.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian Yes. They must open it up for us to buy the 51% stake required for them to meet the regulatory requirements.

@Alias_is_Boss @TheNamibian You shall come around, change is inevitable.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian We are Namibians. We don’t subscribe to unnecessary “changing world”. Reason you don’t see us in your countries. So allow us to reject your changes without insulting us.

@MegaFunTweets @TheNamibian Do you want share ownership in starlink ?

@TrustusM @TheNamibian It is especially given that they don’t want to play by local rules and have no local ownership.

@MegaFunTweets @TheNamibian $35USD/month of unlimited internet is expensive ?.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian Cheapest where? I have seen and compared the pricing in Botswana with other operators and the prices for Starlink don’t justify the hype it gets.

@Alias_is_Boss @TheNamibian I am not, why should i be. The world is changing and you're busy living in the past.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian You sound so hurt 😭 😂😂

@gaviloo12345 @WillarShoko Imagine, Africans suffer themselves for nothing.

@TrustusM @WillarShoko 🤣🤣🤣vanopenga kkk. 90 percent of the digital systems they use its American products. The need to seat down and rethink about it.

Namibia did not think this through, they have an express route to Europe via the Google Equiano cable via Swakopmund. A Ground station would offer the lowest latency and IXPs and Hyperscalers would make it a tech hub

@ChamuMutezva @WillarShoko But data can still be mined here on X, remember its his platform as well.

@TrustusM @WillarShoko Maybe they are right

@Potifahzvombo1 @TateMavetera @Bete263 @adv_fulcrum @CMukungunugwa @hazelwekwagondo @mwarire95490 @shumbakadzi_zim Where are they marching to, 2030 ?

Zvivindi zvako zvekuramba 2030 ndezvei?? Look at Chikomba West Constituency in support of #CAB3 led by @TateMavetera our Hon Minister for ICT. @Bete263 @adv_fulcrum @CMukungunugwa @hazelwekwagondo @mwarire95490 @shumbakadzi_zim

@MabasoAfrica @TheNamibian What about X, isn't also a data mining tool.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian Maybe??? Sure, something subjective basically means only a handful can afford the CIA tool rejected by all major powers globally, no country with a functioning state intelligence accepts this nonsense "Cheap is subjective" 🤡

@floydlezinto @TheNamibian What about data mining apps like X which you are onboard right now.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian You maybe the stupid one here if you think Namibians should trade their sovereignty to this CIA information harvester just because he's 'cheap'.

@DjehoutimessouA @TheNamibian You are saying this while using his app, you might as well quit X then. Apps also spy on you FYI.

@TrustusM @TheNamibian Great news. Not all Africans are stupid enough to finance white supremacist race soldiers and future insurgency communications infrastructure.

@MabasoAfrica @TheNamibian Maybe "cheap" is subjective,

@TrustusM @TheNamibian Starlink and cheap in the same sentence😂😂😂

@Max_Katjimune Speculation surrounds telecom oligarchs influencing govt officials to restrict #Starlink in Namibia. False security, concerns often cited. You are lossing out.

Starlink application DECLINED in Namibia. Well done to CRAN 👏🏾🔥💯🙏🏽
