Sinkholes again The biggest container ship to call at the port of Walvis Bay in history was pulled alongside early on Sunday morning on her maiden call. With a length of 389 metres and a gross tonnage of 95 400 tons, the CMA CGM Danube made for a spectacular scene.

The ship can carry up to 9000 TEU - which in laymen’s terms is approximately 9000 six metre containers.

The massive ship is seen here alongside at berth number one. On the foreground to the left is one of Namport’s tugs.

Missing copper truck found - manhunt on for the driver Liesl Losper A manhunt is on for the driver of the truck laden with copper which disappeared last Monday, prompting the Walvis Bay Corridor Group to offer a reward of N$500 000 for its recovery. That is after the truck was found abandoned in Walvis Bay over the weekend, with the load of copper and the driver missing.

The load of copper was given as 34 000 kilogrammes, which could fetch a hefty price on the black market.

Nampol's Detective Chief Inspector Mwatongwe confirmed to the namib times yesterday the truck was found empty. “We found the truck in Circumferential Street, at the back of the Cymot complex. It was clear the truck driver abandoned the vehicle. The keys were left inside and the cab unlocked,” he said. It is suspected the load of copper is still to be found in the Walvis Bay area.

Only later Laubscher discovered staff actually also handed her the wrong mail. The post box number and number on the mail were different from one another.

“We take cognizance of the situation and our Information Technology (IT) department is aware of this persisting problem. They are doing all they can to make sure that this delinquent status quo will not repeat itself during the next post box (mailbox) payment circle. I do however advise our customers doing electronic payment (EFT), to note their post box number and most importantly, the town where the post box is held, as reference on the deposit slip or EFT. For efficiency purposes, by doing this, it will surely ease our task of identifying the post box and town instantaneously. I therefore would like to take this opportunity to apologise for the inconvenience that we have caused our clients,” said Mr Harold Akwenye, the Marketing Manager of Nampost in Windhoek.

33rd annual bird count Bernabé Blaauw

The 2016 Summer Bird Count took place in the Walvis Bay Ramsar site last Saturday and Sunday for the 33rd time, as part of the International Waterbird Census, since 1983.

This year is the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the International Waterbird Census and the Coastal Environmental Trust of Namibia (CETN) expressed its appreciation to the many volunteers (citizen scientists) who made the summer count of the Walvis Bay wetland a success again. This year five participants from Angola also joined the team to see how the counts are done and then start counts in Angola.

The CETN also expressed their sincere appreciation to Buccaneers Squash Club, Namib Marine Services, Namibia Breweries, Probst Bakery, Radio Electronics and Walvis Bay Salt Refiners who have sponsored the counts over the years.

The winter count will take place in July.

Mr Peter Bridgeford of CETN said that the total for the Ramsar site (95 280), is the lowest summer count for several years but they know many of the species, usually found in large num-

bers, have disappeared to breed inland, and these include Black-necked Grebes, Cape Teal and Chestnut–banded Plovers. Curlew Sandpipers and tern numbers are also low.

Although the flamingos are not breeding in Etosha and Botswana, there numbers in Walvis Bay are low (46 000).

However, about 70 000 were counted at Sandwich Harbour.

Cape Cross only had a small number. The total number counted at the sewage works is 14 892.

The individual numbers for Walvis Bay were as follows: Grebes 236 (Blacknecked), Pelicans 746 (Great Whites), Cormorants and Darters 1 167 (White-breasted Cormorants 20, Cape Cormorants 1 147), Herons and Egrets 121 (Grey Herons 35, Little Egrets 86), Flamingos 46 462 (Greater Flamingos 33 670, Lesser Flamingos 12 132, Unidentified Flamingos 660), Geese and Ducks 1 092 (Cape Teals 1 064, Cape Shovelers 28), Wa-

Water supply restored to troubled Omatjete The water shortage which persisted since December 2015 at the Omatjete settlement has been solved, and the situation is expected to be back to normal this week.

Omatjete is located some 60 kilometres west of Omaruru in the Daures Constituency of the Erongo Region. Coastal residents with relatives at Omatjete expressed relief at the improvement of the situation.

The settlement has been struggling with water shortage because two of the three electronically-powe-

red boreholes supplying water to the settlement were broken.

Erongo Regional Council's Development Planner, Deodat van Wyk told Nampa on Monday said the three boreholes were repaired to pump water to the reservoir distributing water to households and shops.

“The reservoir is full now and we opened it

today so the water is running properly. It took us three days to fill up the reservoir as the boreholes only pump for one hour,” he said.

Van Wyk said the borehole pumps have to rest because the underground water level is low.

For the past three days, the regional council had been supplying

water to residents with tankers while working on the boreholes.

“We added a fourth borehole to supply water for animals only, as the water quality is not fit for human consumption.

I am just waiting to submit the final report this week that the water crisis is dealt with,” he said.

Municipality latest victim of sink holes The Municipality of Walvis Bay became the latest victim of the harbour town’s ongoing sink hole problems. Early on Sunday the local authority’s sewerage truck partly fell into a sink hole that formed on Fourth Street South in Meersig.

Thanks to a crane of Walvis Bay Plant & Tool hire the truck was pulled clear and it was found it sustained minimal damage. Sink holes appear when a breakage appear on underground sewer lines.

Salt water seeps into the pipes and cause huge underground cavities, just waiting to collapse if proper weight is place on it, as is the case with a truck.

According to a source, Gabriel Narib, also known as Gerson Reinhardt Narib is the ring leader of criminal activities for almost five years now and have successfully avoided prosecution in the past by either falsification of his identification, tampering with witnesses, blackmailing the complainants, involved in the disappearance of police dockets or assault of police officers assigned to the investigations. According to the source, a case was also registered in Windhoek whereby a resident was swindled close to half a million Namibian dollars, the case was later scrapped from the court roll around July 2015 due to lack of evidence, the only witness and complainant passed away while the trial was still on. On another case which was in Tsumeb, a businessman was also robbed of a half million Namibian dollars by the same criminals headed by Narib between November 2014 and January 2015, the criminals were eventually arrested in February 2015 and granted bail ranging from N$30 000 and N$10 000 in September 2015. The case will again resume in the Tsumeb Magistrate court. The source said it has become hopeless and useless for victims of this crime, to sit back and spectate, as to how there criminals every time escape the jaws of the judiciary system based on careless or technical mistakes that goes on during investigation processes or during actual court trials. Recently a Swakopmund resident was robbed of N$70 000 and when further financial demands were made, the victim notified the police, who arrested the suspects promptly. Gerson Narib and his gang members are being held in police custody and they will appear in court today for bail application.

Regional crime coordinator, Ottilie Kashuupulwa, confirmed the murder earlier this week.

It was alleged that the deceased was apparently punched by the accused and fell head first on the concrete floor. Motinga is alleged to have sustained serious injuries to the head as a result of the fall and died on the spot. Ellen ran away after the incident and was later found and handed over to the police by family members.

Municipality hears residents’ plight

Residents happy about Kalahari Street’s new jacket Liesl Losper Kalahari Street in Narraville was one of the streets that many has complained about over its bad condition. This Saturday residents of this specific street were very happy when they discovered the street is now being resurfaced (seen on picture to the right).

“This street was in a very bad shape. We only hope that this time round the work will be of a higher standard, in order for the street's quality to last longer. The street's asphalt layer started to deteriorate within weeks after its completion and in less than a year it was in a mess,” explained residents, adding they are happy that the municipality has heard their plight.

OPM to spearhead strategies to contain public wage bill Cabinet has tasked the Office of the Prime Minister with spearheading the implementation of proposed strategies to contain excessive growth in the total wage bill of the Public Service.

A media statement issued by the Office of the Prime Minister on Friday said the strategies will soon be made public by Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila. The strategies include setting a limit on the creation of new posts; upgrading the Human Capital Management System to make it impossible for ghost workers to be employed; investigating the possibilities of reducing the age of early retirement from 55 years to 50 years by making the retirement benefits of staff members more attractive.

Other strategies are streamlining and rationalising the multiplicity of bonuses such as the 13th cheque and other allowances; increasing objectivity on the wage determination process and future increases by aligning it to the prevailing inflation rate and performance; strengthening control over excessive domestic and foreign travel and overtime work; and investigating other modes of providing medical aid to Public Service staff members. The statement indicated that the strategies will also focus on the reduction of the appointment of consultants and temporary workers; implementing a training needs assessment coordination mechanism as proposed by the Office of the Prime Minister to ensure planned training and development interventions; and carrying out functional reviews of each Office/Ministry/Agency to determine staffing needs by focusing on the strategic positions of each Office/ Ministry/Agency in the context of Government's developmental objectives.

The implementation of a performance management system in the Public Service, leading to the improvement of efficiency and linking performance to future salary adjustments, will be another strategy.

Giant sunfish washes ashore I giant mola mola fish, popularly referred to by fishermen at sea as the sunfish, washed ashore near Long Beach last week. The fish got its local name as sunfish as it often surfaces to obtain nutrients by basking in the warm sun. It would then reflect the sun’s rays in a sharp burst, hence the nickname.

The mola mola fish mostly consumes jelly fish, and is often caught in pelagic nets.

Bekende mev February sterf tydens erediens Liesl Losper

‘n Erediens van die Christian Assemblies Kerk op Swakopmund het Sondag tragies tot 'n einde gekom toe 'n lidmaat, me Beveleen February tydens die diens inmekaargesak en gesterf het. Haar seun het die erediens in 'n waarnemende posisie gelei, en sy het 'n dag voor haar dood haar opgewondenheid te kenne gegee dat sy baie na die verrigtinge uitsien.

“Ek het geen onraad bemerk toe sy vir my sê sy gaan gou toilet toe nie. Toe sy nie uitkom nie, het ons skoondogter gaan kyk. Sy het een van die toiletdeure gesluit aangetref, en dit was duidelik iemand moet daarbinne wees. Sy het geklop, maar daar was geen antwoord nie,” het 'n bewoë mnr February gister verduidelik.

“Ons skoondogter het my kom haal en ons was geen ander keuse gelaat as om die deur oop te breek nie. Intussen het ons die nooddienste ontbied, maar het ook nog probeer om noodhulp toe te pas.

Ons kon egter voel hoe haar liggaam begin koud word,” het mnr February voorts ontsteld verduidelik.

“My hart is seer vandag. Na 'n huwelik van 33 jaar sal dit vir geen persoon maklik wees om te kan verwerk wat ek oomblik vir oomblik op daardie tydstip deurgemaak het nie. Ek het haar baie lief gehad, nog steeds, en ek sal haar mis,” sê mnr February of “Oom Feb” soos almal hom ken.

Namibia takes new step forward for conservation During a Hake Association Meeting which was held in Swakopmund on Friday, it was decided by the Government that all fishing vessels should have tori lines. Vessels who operate without tori lines will be heavily fined, the maximum fine not exceeding N$500 000.

According to Clemens Naomab, the project coordinator of the Albatross Task Force, a project under Namibia Nature Foundation, since the regulations on the seabird bycatch mitigation measures have been Gazetted by the government it is now law for the fishing industry to start using birds scaring lines (Tori lines) and to introduce these measures to the fishing vessels.

The main objective of the meeting was to get

the word out there, that the implementation has taken place. Naomab said the Estimates of seabird bycatch in Namibia's hake fisheries – both trawl and demersal longline, are staggeringly high, as much as 30 000 accidental seabird deaths occur every year in this Namibian fisheries, the highest in the world.

However, since 2008, ATF research onboard Namibian trawl and longline vessels has demonstrated that a few, very simple and

extremely cheap measures can be used, that can all but eliminate seabird bycatch.

According to Naomab, tori lines are bird scaring lines which are attached to the stern of the fishing vessels, prevent birds from getting to the baited hooks on the longliner vessels and and the trawl warp cables on the trawlers. “We are urging the fishing companies to start using the tori lines,� said Naomab.

Right: Attendants at the meeting and above Mr Clemence Naomab, project coordinator of the Albatross Task Force.

Catholic Parishes “Walk with Christ” Liesl Losper

The Roman Catholic Parishes had a “Walk with Christ” on Saturday with the theme “Pick up your cross and follow Me”.

Members of Stella Maris and Good Shepherd started at the fire brigade station in Kuisebmond and walked all the way to the Narraville cemetery where the St’ Peters members joined them.

One of the church members explained: “With this walk we bring all the different crosses we are carrying like: illness, troubled marriages and families, unemployment, depression

and the youth going through difficult situations. For all this we pray and to prepare us for the journey on the Lenten season which lasts for 40 days [to the crucifixion of Jesus) starting tomorrow on

Ash Wednesday.”

Along the way all the 3 parishes had a chance to do devotional prayers. While carrying a cross to symbolise the crucifixion people also conducted spiritual reflection and praise and worshiped in song.

Herinneringe is skatte wat niemand kan steel. Dood laat ‘n wond wat niemand kan heel nie Van: Sis, Joeye, Wilfred and Keanen

Mother, how I miss you every waking day I miss your warm hands and I miss the talks we had. I miss the times when words were of need and hope my love you’ll always see.

I wish I’d had some time to go. I want the memories back new and happy still yet I know how much I care. I might not feel so sad and scared. My mother how I miss you so.

From Meyoka Altin and 6 kids

To our dearest mother We thank you Lord for giving us a mother for all the years.

The days we were together were the best, but soon there will be more good days where we all meet again. There will be a lot of silence without you, cause you were the one who always made us laugh and we will miss all of that. Now you are in good hands and God will take care.

From your loving husband, children, daughter-in-law and grandchildren.

Magdalena (Linda) Visagie

Magdalena (Linda) Visagie It is sad to walk the road alone. Instead of side by side But to all there comes a moment when the ways of life divide. You gave us years of happiness. Then came sorrow and pain, but you left us beautifull memories we will treasure through the years.

Wilna triumphs at 10th Hollard Coastal Open Championships Rossmund Golf Course played host over the weekend to the 10th Hollard Insurance Ladies Coastal Open. A field of 22 ladies from Omeya, Windhoek, Walvis Bay, Henties Bay and Rossmund entered, being an official event on the NALGU calendar there was the a d d i t i o n a l incentive of Merit List Points.

Play commenced on Saturday morning Wilna Bredenhann (2016 Champion); De Vil- around 8 o'clock – weather conditions liers Nel (Hollard Insurance)

Walvis Bay Road Runners time trials. (Conducted every second Wednesday)

were good, slightly overcast with a chilly breeze - the course was well prepared and in excellent condition.

Wilna Bredenham posting a first round score of 83 gross, finished in the clubhouse 5 shots ahead of her nearest rival Wilma van der Merwe. Hot and humid was the order of the day on Sunday - as usual Diffie had everything under control and was there on the course to provide the players with well needed

drinks by No 7 and N 16. Despite the conditions Wilna managed to keep going, shooting a 79 gross to secure the Championship by 12 shots over Letitia Brink. As always the players were showered with lots of surprises both on and off the course by sponsor Hollard. The tournament was rounded off with a fantastic prize-giving function which included lunch and some points of history on the past decade. In her thank you speech Wilna likened herself

to a “Lister Engine.”

Takes a while to get going but once in full swing difficult to stop. A big word of thanks to Diffie, Berndine, Ernie and the rest of the Hollard Team, you make this event something special and definitely the highlight on the Ladies Calendar. We look forward to seeing you again in 2017.

Dragon City knocks out Nampol

Sharlien Tjambari

The Nampol and Dragon City ladies soccer teams locked horns on Saturday at the Mondesa Sports Stadium. In the first half of the match, Nampol took the lead through National Youth Service graduate Emelia Ndjene.

Dragon City replied with a well-finished goal by their ever-threatening striker, Myra Maletsky. In the second half of the match, Dragon City came back strong with Tusta Shaalongo scoring two goals before Nampol defender Andiima headed in an own goal, giving Dragon City the lead with four goals to one.

Nampol's hard-working dynamic midfielder, Sarefina Mwambu, scored their second and last goal for the day before Shaalongo completed her third goal of the day (hat trick) to make the 5-2 in favour of Dragon City.

According to Nampol's Team Manager, Gift Kahiha, their team has been together for only three days and she can see good results coming to her team in other games. “We have only trained three days and I can tell you that this team can collect maximum points in other games,” said Kahiha. Swakopmund Women Soccer League's Chairperson, Mr Wilson Nguvauva applauded the Municipality of Swakopmund to provide the Mondesa Sports Stadium with toilets and water for the spectators who came in big numbers to cheer their teams. Nguvauva also urged the municipality to supply water taps and toilets at the Hanganeniand DRC sports fields where most of their games take place.
