Eenghoshi village
Our village is a very small and is called Eenghoshi which means(Lions), is situated at the northen part of the country(Namibia) in Ongenga constituency in Ohangwena region and is at the borders of Namibia and Angola.

According to my grandmother who told me about the history of my village,she said our village is named after a big forest, that was having many lions and they use to in that forest after many past decades. There is a big pan in our village where lions used to drink water and a big tree where they used to rest after they done drinking.In the middle of the village there is a big Marula tree where Ostriches used to lay their eggs and is always ripe first among all of other marula trees.

Currently now there are 52 houses in our village including the house where i live. our village has few inhabitants, we are about 268. There are lots of kids and a few number of parents.all Eenghoshi residents speak oshikwanyama language.

Furthermore we do have a headman in our village and his name is tatekulu Elifas Noa.In the absence of community hall, we do have a tree in front of the headman's house, where important meetings takes place. We have a kindergarten in our village, where most of kids actually attends their first education. there is also nearby schools such as: Onasheya primary school and Oshali west combined school where i acquire my primary education before I moved to Eengedjo secondary school where I completed my grade 12. We have small markets and shebeens where we use to buy our daily needs.

Eenghoshi village is a blessed village, when it comes to foods. There are lots of fruit trees like: Guava, bird palms fruits, jackal berries and others, many people from our neighboring villages use to call our village as a guava village. we have many domestic animals such as cats,dogs,donkeys,pigs,cattle and goats.

The most thing i hate about my village is that there is no electricity but we have running water, by the way i'm happy and proud to be a member of Eenghoshi village.
