THE moronic killing of yet another young woman by her boyfriend dominated social media platforms in Namibia overnight yesterday, with anger and the need for action the dominant emotions. Otherwise, Namibians get to grip with oxymorons, being African, and Lady May.

@hemmatsi: It is sad that it has become a norm: every week a woman is killed by her lover in Namibia. We need a lot of healing.@Nthugbaby: We need gender support groups to combat abuse. We need a bunch of men getting together like in an AA meeting to work out their feelings.@Homa10i: At the age of 5 my daughter will have a black belt in Karate, Tae Wan Do and Jujitsu …@Ndawapeka: When a woman reports an assault crime they are not taken seriously. Most of the times they don’t come back because their partner kills them.@MsOlga21: I’ve concluded that passion killing is not about Money or Love. Elengwa aike. Elengwa! (shame)@KapanduH: Namibian men cheat left, right and centre but kill when they are cheated on?! That is ANUS of the highest order!Africa, Our Africa@Filemon_Fly: The apparent opposite of everything we are often told that success should look like. Mansions? Cars? Who? What? Get out of here. – (Thomas) Sankara@Mushaandja: I am Wambo and equally African, the guy from Zimbabwe and the lady from Benin are both my brother and sister …@mafoya: Impressive how ALL Ghanaians mourn President Atta Mills irrespective of political parties. And so far transition very smooth. #proud #GhanaBig Brother StarGame@Naffy101: I remain strong, like Lady May’s arms, I remain strong!@Hugi_bear: My brother celebrates like he won the lottery when Lady May survives an eviction … @ngurare: Lady May is Proudly African and is Proudly Namibian; thus Africa and Namibia let us keep on voting … :-)@MemeJaneth: So Lady May is on my budget list.Passing Shots@Lakes_GBB: Give that man an Oxymoron, #UseOxymoron-InaSentence@KuliTHEgoon_MMG: Definition2 of #Oxymoron: an ignorant word used 2 confuse Morons #UseOxymoronInaSentence@bubbs07: People on my TL clearly confused by all this omymora business …@HTuuda: A kwaito slow jam #Oxymoron@queenteline: Oxymoron – conjoining contradictory terms. E.g. ‘silence screams the truth’.- Compiled by Jean Sutherland from twitter.com
