Happy Africa Day :: 25 May

Thank you for registering to join the WAAlyeWAA online community. Ever since Otjisomething disappeared, we have all been looking and longing for something similar. This is it. Now, it's just up to us to make this site a success.

WAAlyeWAA is an Oshiwambo word, which means "whatever", "don't mind", "don't care", "anything goes"...

The waa-Team will try to update the site on a regular basis, but we welcome articles and contributions from all of you. The year of the 7s is a big year - great things will happen...believe me...otherwise waalyewaa...

waa-Feature :: Real Life Story - Rags to Riches - Christopher Gardner


If you have watched the Hollywood movie: Pursuit of Happyness starring Will Smith and his son Jaden Smith, Christopher Gardner is the real man that experienced all that hardship.

Gardner's personal struggle of establishing himself as a stockbroker while managing fatherhood and homelesseness is an incredible story. A must read for everyone looking for motivation to go on...cause life can be pretty mean, but there is light at the end of tunnel for all of us. Not just for Christopher Gardner.

This is Africa baby - our Africa - our Namibia...anything is possible. Be all you want to be. Aspire for more cause it's out there for the taking.

Christopher Paul Gardner (born February 9, 1954 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) is a self-made millionaire, entrepreneur, motivational speaker and philanthropist who, during the early 1980s, struggled with homelessness while raising his toddler son, Christopher Junior. Read More
