 The aftermath of Heroes’ Day. A picture and a video circulating on social media have highlighted the story of Christopher Likando Mulala, an unrecognised war veteran. His sister, Dorothy Nfwile, states that he is allegedly suffering from mental illness and poverty in his village outside Katima Mulilo.

This story has sparked an important conversation about our nation’s heroes and the state of their welfare. To help us understand the broader context of this situation and what it means for our society, Desert FM is joined by Professor Johann Coetzee.
