Sad. They're creating their own starvation.
In about 15 years, the new government in Namibia will decide that the only way to combat starvation and stagnation is to invite back the farmers they kicked out and whose land they stole. Already happened in Zambia and Mozabique, which are welcoming the farmers whose land was stolen by the wealthy thieves running the government in next-door Zimbabwe. The farmers learned their lesson, though; they are only taking long-term leases, no land purchases.
But if you control the army you won't starve. They prove that all the time.
