Message of Condolences by President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah following the Passing of Professor Keto ElitabuMshigeni   President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has learned with sadness about the passing of Professor Keto Elitabu Mshigeni who passed on Sunday, 22 March 2026, aged 82.   In her message of condolences, President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah says:   “I have learned with heartfelt sadness about the passing of Professor Keto Elitabu Mshigeni, who served as a Research Consultant at the University between 1991 and 1995 in the Faculty of Agriculture & Natural Sciences, where he contributed to early academic and research structuring.   Professor Mshigeni was a distinguished academic, renowned botanist, and a foundational figure in the establishment and early development of the University of Namibia (UNAM). Professor Mshigeni contributed immensely to the establishment of the UNAM and he also served as Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Administration and Finance (1995–1998), helping to put in place key governance, administrative, and financial systems in place.   Professor Mshigeni subsequently became the Founding Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Academic Affairs and Research from 1998–2001, where he played a central role in shaping the University’s academic architecture, programme development, and research direction.   Beyond institutional leadership, Professor Mshigeni was an accomplished scientist whose work in marine botany, seaweed aquaculture, and environmental sustainability made a significant contribution to Namibia’s research landscape.   He was also involved in the United Nations University’s Zero Emissions Research Initiative (UNU/ZERI) in Namibia, where he pioneered seaweed and mushroom cultivation projects as sustainable, low-impact livelihood and biodiversity initiatives.   On behalf of the people and the Government of the Republic of Namibia, I extend heartfelt condolences to the wife, children, grandchildren and the entire bereaved family and friends. During this difficult time of bereavement, our thoughts and prayers are with the entire bereaved family.   May his soul rest in eternal peace.”

Bila kuathiri hoja yako kuu, rangi #nyeusi ilindwe.

Ukishaishiwa aibu matokeo yake huwa ni kujidanganya mwenyewe. Unajidanganya mpaka akili inaanza kuaminisha uongo wako mwenyewe na kukutengenezea ‘narratives’ za kukusaidia kusimamia uongo wako mwenyewe.

Moyo wa binadamu ni fumbo kubwa sana. Ila kauli yake ni dhahiri ya mafikirio. Ukiwa na subra, wala huitaji kutumia nguvu. Atakuonyesha tu. Maana wengine sura si haba, ila moyo mweusi hadi ibilisi anakutumia kama mfano wa kuigwa na mwishoye na yeye anaanza kuona anasingiziwa.

Huyu ni Mwandishi kamuuliza Mwigulu maswali magumu sana, Mungu amlinde wasije wakamteka maana kaongea mambo ambayo wauaji hawataki kusikia.

Tone deafness is truly in vogue.

Wahafidhina walikuja na karata ya dini wakakutana na Watanzania ambao kwao dini ni vitu vinavyowaunganisha. Watanzania wanazipenda dini zote kwa sababu kwao hakuna dini mbaya. Yaani Watanzania dini zote ni zao. Kwa hili Watanzania tumeonesha ukomavu. Tuendelee hivyo hivyo. 😂🙏

Uanaume haulindwi kwa ubabe. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kutokukiri makosa. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kushindana. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kutokuonesha hisia. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kujua kila kitu. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kutokuomba msaada. Uanaume haulindwi kwa usiri. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kutelekeza familia. Uanaume haulindwi kwa udanganyifu. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kukosa uaminifu. Uanaume haulindwi kwa wingi wa michepuko. Uanaume haulindwi kwa kuwa MKAMILIFU. #MaadhimishoUanaume
