You guys got the wrong cover picture. And kindly use the word founding father he's not just a former president. Maybe Mr pohomba can be referred to as that

Sam Nujoma was the father of Nation, because Namibia defeated South African apartheid regime,he was a freedom fighter, a militant.

Hi SABC team, Its very disrespectful, unprofessional and lazy to use the picture of H.E. Hifekepunye Pohamba here. For an organization of your size, your journalists, editors etc should know the difference between Sam Nujoma and Hifikepunye Pohamba. You could easily just googled the correct images..
