Kawana Selling Out Caprivi?

I AM really disappointed about how the Minister of Presidential Affairs, Albert Kawana, responded to the issue of Caprivi and Kavango. The group of academics from Caprivi suggested what they think is the best and I concur with them that their submission to the delimitation commission was nothing other than the truth. Instead he went on insulting the sons and daughters of Caprivi, by stating that “the commission has the power to decide on the boundaries of the two regions”.

After reading that I came up with the following questions: Who sold Kasikili Island? Can the minister tell the people in what capacity he was speaking when he responded to the concerned group? Does he know the boundaries of the Caprivi after spending some time in the bush? What legacy does he want us the new generation to remember him by? When he is done worshipping the ‘Swapo government’, where will he go to settle? Is it not in the same region he has betrayed for so long?
I am really worried what to tell the generations to come.
