I have been hesitating to write about this topic for some
time now. I mean …. Where does one start when you are writing about a topic
such as the abuse and killing of women in Namibia? And why is it called passion
killing again? What is so passionate about killing someone, decapitating them,
cutting their body in pieces with a panga…. Or leaving an axe in their
head!..... Eish – I am already getting cold feet as I write this!!!!!
I can’t even remember how many women and babies were killed
last year… months or days ago. I lost count because the killing has turned into
a daily basis thing. The last one I remember is about a 2 years old baby that was raped
and killed by some crazy man. I mean …. How do you rape a 2 year old baby and
expect the baby to live after that. .... mxiuuw!
I am speechless…. Scared and disturbed by such ill behavior
activities that I can’t even continue to write about this topic. Perhaps I will
cool down for now and continue later.
2 weeks later……. Mhhh – it has been 2 weeks since I started
working on this blog draft but just can’t finish. I seriously don’t have
courage to write about such a painful topic. Our founding father – comrade Shafaoishuna
Nuuyoma said let us bury these evil men alive, while our current president
honorable Hifikepunye Pohamba suggested prayers….. I can’t blame them for coming
up with such options. Passion killing is just too devastating that one even end
up thinking of impossible solutions. And I heard people talking about
execution. Execution may sound extreme but we are left with no options! Period!
I have 3 suggestions: 1) Women let us raise our son to be
caring men who are responsible and would not kill women over love or what so
ever that makes them angry; 2) Men should men up enough to face life after
being dumped or whatever is done to them. And take your own life if you can’t
face life…. Leave women and babies alone!; 3) Media – stop airing things like
Oscar Pretorius trial. We are not interested in hearing his lies. We just want
you to air the part that says “Mr. Oscar your guilty!”……. Opuwo…. Finish…..
Kapish!
