Namulan Tarkambo's award-winning podcast, Dear Daughter returns on the 27th of February for a brand new season.

Millions of tons of valuable haik and horse mackerel had been pulled from the ocean with foreign companies plundering the profits. The bold idea was for Namibians to claim their share of the spoils and develop their young country. But three decades on, unemployed fisherman Jason Ipenga can testify that life has taken a turn for the worse.
