After public outrage and expression of frustration, Hashikutuva has initiated correspondence with the movement via mail. In the correspondence, he attached proof of payment, with details on the transfer of funds amounting to US$5000,\u201d the #ShutItAllDown movement delegation members updated.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>They further noted that while they would like to proceed with the important work of advocating for a safer country for women, girls and gender diverse people in Namibia, they would like to ascertain the origins of the funds repatriated by Hashikutuva.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThereby, #ShutItAllDown has decided to proceed with actions to ascertain the sourcing of the funds, to know whether the payment made by Hashikutuva was transferred from the original funding and not monies that might have been attained in a dubious way. As a result, we have uncovered that there is something amiss with the payment made by Hashikutuva. We have requested that he provide us access to the bank account he opened to receive funds, as it was opened under #ShutItAllDown. Hashikutuva has absolutely ignored this. He, however, opted to transfer the funds back on Tuesday, 12 October,\u201d the movement said.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><!-- MetaSlider 271797 not found --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zorena Jantze LEBBEUS Nghidimondjila Hashikutuva, former activist in the #ShutItDown movement, has been arrested for the alleged theft of N$40&nbsp;000 meant for the AfterBreak publication.
