Thank you, Your Excellency @SWAPOPRESIDENT for honoring that young hero. This Namibian act of courage and kindness will inspire many people to lead with compassion, humility, and kindness. May this example continue to encourage unity and hope in our nation

President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah says she will confer hero status on 16-year-old Cornelius Shimwaafeni for his bravery in rescuing nine-month-old twins from a water pond. The President’s announcement follows an NBC News report detailing how Shimwaafeni saved the infants after their mother allegedly threw them into the water. The President said his bravery earned him the accolade, adding that further details regarding the date of the honour ceremony will be announced in due course.
