ON Sunday, @IamElago tweeted: ‘Namibia has officially come to a standstill… fingers crossed for Lady May to wiN #BigBroAfrica today.’ It captured just how much Lady May has been embraced by the nation. Who can remember when last Namibians have rallied around a person, or an issue, as they did with the feisty singer. Sadly, she didn’t win the money, but she didn’t disappoint. More than that, she won hearts at home and across Africa. Just a few of the tweets, as well as some on that man Usain Bolt!
@MrFantastiic: *Trevor Noah’s African voice* We are VERY PROUD of our representative Lady May. The others also well done but Lady May we are VERY PROUD!@Supermodel_Kux: So, so, so proud, though. LADY MAY TAKE A BOW.@Albi_Me: I love you Lady May… You did us proud! Money or not, you stuck to your guns. Take a bow.@misshillp: You represented your country with style and grace. You are our winner #LadyMay.@Puxi_GBB: Lady May is the closest Namibia has come to winning anything this year.@SharonOjong: Whether Lady May wins or not. It doesn’t change the fact that she’s a strong, independent, focused, determined, etc, woman and I love her@bnkenia: My heart is broken, nevertheless I wish #LadyMay much success. She really did her best and that’s exactly how a lady should behave #StarGame.@Ms_azo: I’m not getting involved in this shit anymore… #stargame hurts like crazy :(@Hugi_bear: Katutura hospital is going to admit a lot of people today (yesterday) claiming to be suffering from heartache… #teamladymay #stargame@Tsobela: Tomorrow’s discussion in Parliament 1. The votes were rigged 2. Funding for the BBA housemate. Topics moved to 2015 unemployment and housing…@MsBunny: If Lady May doesn’t win, I’m gonna blame Noa!@marcianelago: Despite playa hating, Lady May a rose, a thornless sweet rose that blossomed well over three months… goodnight motherflowers!@StargameZimfan: Fantastic human being Lady May.@DeeGeingos: She must take that NBC/MTC most disciplined artist award next year. #LadyMayThat Man Usain!@blakshuz: I’m concluding that Netman is Jamaican!@Paa_Kunene: Phelps, Bolt, Carl Lewis, and Messi are all from the same planet I guess. Why test them for drugs, rather test if they are really humans.@gabiikena: Imagine if Usain Bolt was your father and you were trying to run away from a wooping.@Kondja: Bolt might be the fastest man on Earth, but I find solace in the fact that I am definitely not the slowest.- Compiled by Jean Sutherland from twitter.com
