Kaaronda no threat - NUNW
Please come on NUNW who is competing with who and why do you you say its not a threat? we all can see that there is already fear that the new Union will come take a majority of the NUNW clients. With the good work done by Mr. Kaaronda its obvious alot of people will easily leave other trade union and join this new one.. Its a democratic country let that be and do not stop other people of doing what they want as long its not illegal. Gooooooooooooo Mr. Kaaronda we are 100% be hide you... Thanks a lot for the support from NACCAFWU , that is what we call a healthy competition..... - Gottlob Kapukua
It means its a threat to them that's why they are being vocal already this early. Should Kaaronda form a new union then NUNW will loose its members that's for sure. Cde Kaaronda has a heart of the workers and feels their grieveances and the fact that he is vocal, fearless, unwaved cadre he is been victimized. The issue of GIPF is outstanding and it will remain that until a administration takes over. Viva Kaaronda.................. - Nathan Haininga
NANW with your Angula and Garoeb, you are out of line and are now telling everyone that you are threatened by the idea that is not meant to be a threat to you. Think again before you say what you have to say and bear in mind that the truth will always prevail. Kaaronda, we are behind you. We are strongly supporting you!!!

Nhs Haaanguuulaa At some point said He (kaaronda) was a ruuuuning dg being used and users shall throw him away when finish using him.life is wheel........one side on top now the next moment is down.the same principal will apply to the so called care taker/acting SG today. - George lomufika
Kaaronda has has shown the interest of workers. He has indicated that he is a true representative of workers, he questioned the way the workers' pension were taken care of by GIPF. He takes a bull by it's horns and speak for the voiceless, no what their responses. Kaaronda you're a tested cadre. Form the new trade union, we will join and maintain it. - Jona
Alfred Angula, you failed the farmworkers especially i Aussenkehr travelling with PS's in chartered planes and propably got got under the table payments,as a dictator there at NAFWU, controlled by politicians and have no interest of workers at heart. No wonder you had to be pushed in as Deputy and than stab your own in the back. SHAME ON YOU!!!!! - ben
Time for change has come, Let a young man with vibrant ideas do it this time - we are tired of people hiding behind others and do things not by own initiative but because they are told to do so by who and whoever ............. go Kaaronda. - flora Mupia
NUNW you know very well that if Kaaronda forms a union we will all join it because he is there for the workers unlike you, that is why you are insecure. Your beloved SWAPO will back you up as we move to our new union - Pandu
NUNW feels threatened. thats why they jumped to say they are not threatened. lets be realistic. go on karonda - max
wishing u lucky Karonda. We will join u soon. Namibia grape company need u.
ANC dumped Malema, NUNW fired Kaaronda now NUMSA will fight COSATU, next is Ngurare and his infantery will follow by SWAPO and last Kaaronda will dig and seal their graves with concrete. Take care Alfred, very cold outside SWAPO and NUNW!!!!!!!!!! - Shambaye
Who told NUNW that Kaaronda is contemplating to form a union to be a threat for NUNW... That is exactly were you guys are losing it... It is not a competition or a popularity test but it is about representing the plights and rights of workers... You (NUNW) seem to have set your sights at the wrong place.... ag shame! - Romanus

Unfortunate NUNW lacks the ability to seperate the union and party when it comes to workers' interest. In Europe and our neighbor here, there is no compromise on works' needs. But at the end of the day all union members are members of various political parties including governing party. When election comes they go vote for their parties. Therefore the attitiude of NUNW leaders is of cowards as they fail to face off with political leaders as their more worried about the personal interests than the workers' - Sam
Karonda just go ahead i will join you - mavindu
Iyaa NUNW! MAY BE NOW YOU REALISE THE MISTAKE YOU MADE LAST YEAR. - DON
NUNW you lost us all - Prince.
I personally just waiting for Kaaronda to form that union so that i can join. This ka small boy reminds me of the genuine old leaders that was fighting for betterness of they people. I am tired of todays mickymouse leaders that dn't have thruth in themself. - Apollus Swartbooi
NUNW must stop lying, they know very well that we the workers are keeping them, and they know very well that the workers are not happy at all. I personally am just waiting for Kaaronda to form that union so that I can join. NUNW has lost the trust of its people, that includes their little boys NANTU. - Gerson
