The ability of the Brave Warriors to unite Namibians should be celebrated, and their talent should be capitalised on beyond their participation in the Africa Cup of Nations.

Sociologists say this approach would lead to the country breaking many barriers and using diversity and unity as tools for the wholesome development of its society.

Away from the euphoria that has engulfed the Namibian nation every time the Brave Warriors take to the field, there is a grand display of impenetrable unity among Namibians.

Two children were lucky to emerge alive after a shack fire broke out at the One Nation informal settlement in Windhoek's Tobias Hainyeko Contiuency on Monday afternoon.

The two children, aged three and ten, were reportedly on their own when the incident occurred.

According to neighbours, they noticed smoke coming from the shack and screams from passersby that the dwelling was burning.

The neighbours attempted to extinguish the fire but to no avail.

Attempts to put out the fire were in vain, and no household goods could be salvaged.
