Matheus Nangolo

“MATHEUS Nangolo, a former soldier in the liberation struggle and chairperson of the former Refugees Repatriation Association Namibia, has taken the SWAPO Party's Secretary General, Sophia Shaningwa, to court, demanding a total of N$25 million for alleged defamatory remarks.”

“The petition, presented by the group's chairperson, Matheus Nangolo, was received by the ministry's executive director, Audrin Mathe.”

“"We fail to understand why the above matter has not been called for a case planning conference for more than two months since it was filed and approved," Nangolo says.”

“Chairperson Matheus Nangolo told The Namibian yesterday that the group had coordinated with party members on where to place the posters.”

“The group's spokesperson, Matheus Nangolo, has maintained that they would not leave and that he expect more ex-combatants to join until their grievances are addressed.”

“In a sworn statement also filed at the court, the leader of the group, Matheus Nangolo, denied they were occupying premises belonging to Swapo.”

“After the ruling, Matheus Nangolo, the leader of the ex-combatants, expressing gratitude for the victory, stated that the group will continue their occupation at the ruling party's headquarters.”

“Komboni postponed the hearing after a representative of a group of 50 people cited as respondents in the matter, Matheus Nangolo, asked the judge to postpone the party's urgent application for three months to give the group time to find a legal representative.”

“"We have seen the application for Swapo's eviction intention, however, we are not leaving until we get our repatriation benefits," Nangolo said.”

“In a statement issued on Friday association president Matheus Nangolo acknowledged the incident.”
