THE UNITED DEMOCRATIC PARTY (UDP) MOURN THE DEATH OF LATE MR. FRED MUBONENWA.

Countrymen, allow me to say here that we are deeply saddened to learn of the tragic loss of Mr. Fred Mubonenwa. We also know that the entire Caprivi Strip is truly shocked to learn and hear of his passing. This has come as a blow to the Mafwe Royal Establishment in the Caprivi Strip and to the United Democratic Party in particular. He was a father figure, an icon whose work was felt by both the Khuta and he was a great player in the Caprivian politics. Caprivians knew him as a great man, brave man, and a warrior who feared no man and was always prepared to face any situation head on. Some knew him as a grandfather of the Caprivian nation (kuku wa sicaba). The late is a hero whose work and contribution to educate the entire Caprivian people shall be remembered for more years to come.

To his survived family members, it is a known fact that there are no words we can offer that will make this any easier, but hopefully just knowing that we care will allow you to lay some of the burdens on us. It is during this dark hour that we want you to know we are and will be with you in your sorrow and prayers always. Also, we all are reminded in the book of John, which states "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life."

To all the sympathizers and fellow countrymen, Mr. Fred Mubonenwa was snatched away from us when we needed him most.So, as we honor his memories, we hope each of you will take comfort in knowing that his commitment to his fellow countrymen and to the Caprivian tradition, culture and politics will never be forgotten. We will always carry them in our hearts, and his legacy of service will inspire us as we work together toward a free Caprivi Strip.

Kuku wa sicaba sa Caprivi, lobala hande.
