Namibia: Solomon, the Mesmerising Poet

Eenhana — He has been mesmerising people here in the north, especially in his mother tongue, Oshiwambo but the 28-year-old Salomo Ndeyamunye Ndeshimona has taken his talent from the classroom to another level.

The hunchback, who originates from Ondangwa, has published his own collection and anthology of classical poems. The anthology titled The Blistered Pen, a hullaballoo of poetry has a collection of 58 poems all written in the English language although he sometimes translates them in his mother tongue when performing for the public during government functions and other educational events here in the north.
