    I actually just tuned in, I saw a clip of this video from my brother's Whatsapp status and it had me intrigued to the sound of him mentioning his village name (kubaJimu). I have only heard of it and know that's where my dad comes from and that he was born there but I've never had a chance to visit but I would love too with great honor, am even delighted and happier at the Narrator introducing my uncle ( Mr Mbala) as his grandpa, I saw my aunt banaChaze too. It was good to see them because I only used to visit them for the years that I was still in school in Windhoek. Hello Cliff👋. I think you are my nephew by biological relation and I hope to meet you soon. I love your content and the fact that you just gave me a life time opportunity in a few minutes is the magic for me.
