Club career
editThe dreadlocked striker was born in Swakopmund but moved to Onathinge in the Oshikoto Region and then left for neighboring Angola aged only 14 where he lived in a refugee camp.[1] On his return to Namibia in 1991, Angula mostly played for Oshakati City, except for the years 2004 to 2006 when he played for Civics, picking up two league titles.
Nicknamed Cascas, he has later coached Ongwediva City[2] and was manager of NPL side Young Chiefs.[3]
International career
editHe made his debut for the Brave Warriors in a January 1998 friendly match against Niger and was capped 9 times and scored twice for the Namibia national football team, including a squad membership without actually playing at the 1998 African Cup of Nations.[4] A great header of the ball, Angula also featured for the U-23 national team.[1]
