The community of Omaheke said it has lost a family man, Absai Uetuesapi Mungendje, who always advocated for peace among his people.

Mungendje aged 99 died last week. 
 
The traditional priest was residing at Toasis, at the homestead of the late Hosea Kutako in the Aminuis Constituency.

The homestead is being transformed into a memorial museum in honor of the late Chief Hosea Kutako.

The late Mungendje was a nephew and a driver of the late Ombara Kutako.

President Hage Geingob is happy with the progress made in the construction of the Chief Hosea Kutako Memorial Museum and Homestead Shrine in the Omaheke Region.

The construction of the Memorial Museum and Homestead Shrine commenced last year.

President Geingob inspected the site, located 195 kilometers from Gobabis, at the late stalwart's village of Toasis.

The decision to construct the Memorial Museum and Homestead Shrine was taken during the Second National Land Conference in 2018.

Prime Minister Sara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila says Chief Hosea Kutako was a national hero who didn't only think of his tribe but reached out to other communities. She said this when she visited Divine Priest Absai Uetuesapi Mungendje, who now oversees the sacred shrine at the Hosea Kutako Museum and Homestead in Toasis in the Aminuis Constituency.
