Ben Mulongeni hails The Namibian as a watchdog for democracy

[PODCAST]

We take a step back in time to reflect on one of Namibia’s most influential institutions The Namibian newspaper. Celebrating 40 years of existence this year, The Namibian has been more than just a publication; it has been a voice for the voiceless, a watchdog for democracy, and a critical part of our country’s journey from struggle to statehood.

Joining me now is Ben Mulongeni, who remembers those formative years, to share his reflections on The Namibian’s role in shaping the media landscape, its influence during the independence struggle, and how it has managed to adapt and remain relevant four decades later.
