A 35-year-old taxi driver has been arrested for allegedly raping an 8-year-old learner whom he was contracted to transport to and from school.

It is alleged that the suspect raped the young learner twice this week, on Monday and Tuesday, after picking her up from Klein Kuppe Private School in Ongwediva.

On the two days he picked her up, he stopped at different places and raped the victim in his taxi between Ekuku and Ongwediva.

They say do good and good will come to you. 

This was manifested when a 29-year-old Windhoek taxi driver, Nicco Sibolile received a generous donation of more than N$20 000 after he returned N$8 000 to a customer who had forgotten her bag in his taxi.

The Chief Learning Officer in the Ministry of Justice, Vaino Muvale started a "Go Fund Me" for Nicco Sibolile after learning about his good act of kindness and honesty. 

The "Go Fund Me" was initially started with the aim to buy Nicco a new taxi, but efforts to do so didn't work out and instead, they raised N$20 000.
