Tugela Tuyeni (born 5 February 1982 Onekwaya in the Ohangwena Region – died 16 December 2016 Tsumeb, Oshikoto Region) was a Namibian midfield footballer with F.C. Civics Windhoek of the Namibia Premier League and the Namibia national football team.
Tugela fled into exile for the liberation of Namibia as a little boy tailing his parents to various refugee camps in Angola and Zambia respectively during Namibia’s liberation war against the South African apartheid regime. He then became a resident of Swakopmund where he was placed in the care of his aunt to start his primary education until he completed his secondary education at Namibia’s most revered holiday resort.
