At the time of paying tribute to Immanuel Ngatjizeko my article was dedicated to Philip Keripuu Tjerije – a live tribute.  Well, now Philip Keripuu Tjerije has died and is burried.

Local poultry farmers say they were caught off guard by government’s decision to allow American poultry products into the Namibian market, a move they believe threatens the survival of an already fragile industry.
Fimanekeni  Shivute, owner of JNJ Perfect Poultry Farming, said farmers were neither consulted nor informed prior to the policy shift that came into effect on 1 July, granting U.S. producers access to Namibia’s poultry market, valued at approximately USD 15 million (over N$268 million).
