Why two cases for reparations?

It is with the greatest dismay that I am registering my disgruntlement and sadness relating to the above stated scenario.

We know for a fact that there are two warring factions regarding the issue of genocide reparations, being the Government side on the one hand and the opposing Rukoro faction. A case has been filed in the United State of America and the Government is doing its own things on the side.

About three (3) weeks ago the Government dispatched a team to give feedback on the current state of affairs. I can only conclude that these meetings are being held to confuse the rural, ill-informed communities. Against this background, I would herewith like to put it peremptorily and unambiguously that we as the legitimate plaintiffs have the Constitutional right to know what is exactly going on in this federal court case.

However, I am very disappointed that the delegation could not answer my poignant and direct question, being what is the way forward for the recommendations and resolutions taken at the Swakopmund workshop, held from the 28th to 30th March 2019.

A similar follow-up, sensitizing community meeting was held at Keetmanshoop on Sunday, 31st March 2019 at the W.K. Rover Community Hall, an unusually packed community meeting. It was more of an information sharing meeting than anything else.

I have however applauded the the stakeholders, beneficiaries and the interested parties for the endeavours put in so far. To the best of my knowledge, I could observe that the delegation was aimed at explaining the purpose of their community outreach, their appointing mandate and to solicit funding for the course of their endeavour. One noticed that the leaders of the delegation were very cautious and selective in responding to questions from the public.

I cannot spare it from mentioning that the UK lawyer, Mr. Kenneth Mccallion was proud and eager that he has been an integral part of the same and/or similar extermination order international court case/s and was quite adamant that they will win it.

In my personal view, it should not just be information sharing sessions, because the Government is doing the same thing at the expense of the taxpayers. Against this background, I am herewith registering my strongest opposition against the move and the actions.
