Episode notes

President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has appointed former executive director Ndiyakupi Nghituwamata as Namibia’s new ambassador to Ghana, even as she remains under Anti-Corruption Commission investigation over a N$4.9-million tender linked to urban and rural development minister James Sankwasa.

The move has sparked renewed debate about government vetting and integrity checks for top diplomatic posts.

Desert FM speaks to former ambassador and diplomatic analyst Pius Dunaiski for insight on the implications of this appointment.
