Health Ministry urges schools to be Covid safe The Ministry of Health and Social Services urged schools this week to step up precautionary measures to ensure learners and teachers are protected against Covid-19.

Namibia is now in its third wave of Covid infections with record numbers of people testing positive on a daily basis. A large number of these mass infections are school learners and teachers.

The Ministry assured Namibians it is coordinating actions with the Ministry of Health and Social Services and the Teachers Unions of Namibia (TUN) to step up protection protocols at schools.

Khomas Region remains worst hit.

“I don’t known whether it is negligence from our side as residents, but what I know is we need to step up our precautionary measures against Covid-19. We need to do better”.

Walvis Bay’s Mayor, Cllr. Trevino Forbes, issued a stern warning on Tuesday night during the monthly Council meeting that the Covid19 infection rate is Walvis Bay is climbing at an alarming rate.

He urged residents to take personal responsibility to contain the virus and not only expecting the Ministry of Health and Social Services to fight the virus.

Mayor Forbes, who also tested positive for the Coronavirus four weeks ago, and had to isolate urged all citizens who qualifies to take the vaccine, to do so without delay.

Mayor warns against “politically motivated” events organisers Walvis Bay’s mayor, Cllr Trevino Forbes, called upon individuals, companies and Government ministries to engage his office when they organise events in the harbour town.

Several events have taken place in recent months where the organisers simply did not invite the mayor.

These include a number of Government events and also a new business launch, by a very prominent Namibian corporate, to which the Governor of Erongo Neville André and a visiting Governor of another Region were invited. Mayor Forbes was not on the invitation list, leaving the newly elected local authority council embarrassed.

Mayor Forbes in his mayoral address during the monthly Council meeting on Tuesday night specifically warned against politically motivated disdain in which events organisers don’t invite the mayor and Councillors to Government-linked events.

He also attributed other occasions to which neither himself or Councillors were invited as pure ignorance by the event organisers.

“In accordance with internationally accepted

guiding principles, the Mayor is the first citizen of a municipal area.

It also follows that the Office of the Mayor represents all citizens in such jurisdiction, irrespective of such citizens’ colour, tribe or political affiliation.

It further goes without saying that certain events by their very nature would therefore involve the presence of the Mayor in his or her official capacity.

When such protocol is ignored, either through ignorance or clear disdain our municipal area, the general public may interpret this as a sign disrespect towards the people of Walvis Bay. I therefore appeal to individuals, companies or government entities to engage with the Office of the Mayor when organising events of an official nature.

My staff and I would be more than happy to assist”, explained Cllr Forbes.

Wellbeing of the fishermen at heart

Backed by the Affirmative Repositioning labour wing, about 400 fishermen on Monday 31 June took to the streets yesterday, saying they have been re-employed on fixed-term contracts, instead of permanent jobs as stipulated by the former fisheries minister Albert Kawana.

Armed group faces charges of Murder, Robbery and Attempted Robbery A group of five men armed with knives, faces charges of Murder, Robbery and Attempted Robbery after they robbed and stabbed 29-year-old police constable, Asser Dominicus while he walked his girlfriend home from a friend's house on Saturday, 5 June 2021 at Kuisebmond.

After the suspects robbed the couple, it is alleged one of the suspects turned back and stabbed Asser twice, once in the back and once in the abdomen, before they ran away. Asser passed away not too long after. Two of the five suspects, a 21-year-old and a 25-year-old suspect, have been caught and made their first appearance in the Walvis Bay Magistrates Court.

The fishermen, who were recently employed through a joint venture said they did not receive any benefits, despite a 13822 metric ton quota being allocated for their permanent employment.

The fishermen are accusing Cavema Fishing and subsidiary companies Camposatu, Vernier Investments and The Rainbow who employed them of cheap tactics to score quotas under the pretence of giving permanent employment.

Samuel Kondo who read the petition on behalf of his fellow seamen said Kawana made it clear the allocation is to preserve employment.

Kondo said “We make reference to the letter written by former fisheries minister Albert Kawana, dated 24 July 2020. He makes specific reference that an allocation of 5 600 MT of freezer horse mackerel quota has been made to Camoposatu, 6330 MT of freezer hake quota, 500 MT of freezer hake quota to Rainbow Fishing as well another 1 792 MT of freezer hake quota, all as recommended by Cavema Fishing (Pty) Ltd joint venture.

“The above quota allocation was for purposes of ensuring permanent employment of 645 fishermen

who lost their employment” Kondo said.

Kondo added that this is contrary to the government directive, and they are still left in the dark regarding the certainty of their employment status.

“We are still in the dark about our employment; some of us are engineers and earning a mere N$3 900, which is a slap in the face” Kondo said.

The Chairman of Cavema Robert Shimooshili who reveived the petition said they will look into the claims at their earliest convenience.

According to Shimooshili there is a lot of discrepancies and misunderstanding but he is sure that they will achieve something if they meet around the table.

Shimooshili added they have the wellbeing of the fishermen at heart and will revert to them as soon as possible.

“We feel pity for you, seeing that you have been without jobs for so long and our aim is to look after you,” Shimooshili said.

The fishermen then requested that the company responds to their grievance before 8 June or else they will approach legal practitioners and the high court for a permanent solution.

Zim transport minister visits port of Walvis Bay The Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Development of the Republic of Zimbabwe, Hon Felix Mhona recently paid a courtesy visit to the Namibian Ports Authority.

The purpose of his visit amongst others was to understand the progress made so far in the development of infrastructure, installation and enhancement of systems at the Zimbabwean dry port to facilitate trade. Minister Mhona said cooperation between Zimbabwe and Namibia “is historic” and already, there is cooperation on various social, economic and political fronts. “Most strategically, I am told that our two sister countries are currently working on strengthening trade between them, by promoting the utility of the transport corridors of Trans-Kalahari and Walvis Bay Ndola Lumbumbashi Corridor routes.

“This, I know, and as we shall fully establish, is being spearheaded under the auspices of the Walvis Bay Corridor Group. All this speaks volumes of our well-established cooperation,” said Mr Mhona during his visit.

The Zimbabwean Dry Port facility was officially opened in 2019 by H.E. President Mnangagwa, President of Zimbabwe with his counterpart Dr Hage Geingob, the President of the Republic of Namibia.

Cause of Shoprite-complex BoN Governor warns fire not yet determined..... against cryptocurrency Sharlien Tjambari

The Governor of the Bank of Namibia (BoN), Johannes !Gawaxab, says the Central Bank does not recognise cryptocurrencies in Namibia, neither does it recommend the trading in cryptocurrencies or support the possession of such. !Gawaxab said this during his recent visit to the Erongo Region where he among others addressed the Region's business fraternity.

The fire that raged in the Shoprite complex in Swakopmund shortly after midnight on Wednesday wiped out the store of the Foschini clothing chain and partly damaged the clothing store of Markhams.

The rest of the businesses in the complex are unscathed which include the Shoprite supermarket, Clicks, and Hungry Lion.

The fire damaged a part of the complex's electric supply system, leaving the American Swiss shop in darkness. Community members on Wednesday gathered in disbelieve, witnessing what they described as a disaster, especially for the Foschini clothing retailer. Others gathered in front of the shop hoping to get some of the clothes which have been damaged by the fire and smoke.

One lady who wanted to remain anonymous said she waited the whole day, hoping she would get a chance to get a few clothing items. To her disappointment she learnt that clothes not damaged were to be send back to the retailers' head offices for insurance purposes.

At the time of going to press the cause of the fire was not yet determined.

Rehabilitation and vocational centre Long Beach residents planned for disabled persons ask why the old slipway A rehabilitation- and vocational training centre for physically challenged Namibians between the ages of 18 and 55, are planned near Otjiwarongo. The newly established non-profitable organisation, Living Water Village, has initiated the project and is appealing for the public and institutions to support this initiative financially.

Living Water Village says the project is unique in the sense that it plays a dual role – firstly to assist with the rehabilitation of persons with disability, and offering a vocational training facility where the disabled person develops skills in a variety of disciplines to be able to carve out a new life.

The purchase of a portion of a farm near Otjiwarongo, measuring 140 hectares, is Living Water Village's first priority. An amount of N$15 million is needed, whilst the second phase project, the development of the rehabilitation and vocational facilities, will require a further N$40 million, according to an information package that was supplied to Namib Times.

Through rehabilitation and vocational training, Living Water Village wants to be an agent of positive change to people living with disabilities. Although there are several institutions in Namibia caring for the disabled, this project wants to bring a new perspective to persons living with disabilities. It would enable the disabled person to begin a new, self-fulfilling live.

In its mission statement Living Water Village says it wants to work towards a Namibian society this is sensitive and aware of the challenges facing persons living with disability. It wants to empower them to take control of their lives and achieve full participation in Living Water Village and also the wider society.

One of the main elements of the project will be an irrigation scheme, vegetable tunnels, processing areas, fruit orchards dairy cattle, pigs, sheep, chickens, gees and horses. People living at Living Water Village will be supported with

training to be able to take part in these agriproduction activities.

In addition, other skills development will also take place to enable people living at Living Water Village to be able to earn and income once they leave. These include welding, woodwork, cultivation, basic mechanical skills and business operations skills.

“At Living Water Village, we aim to be as selfsufficient as possible and will grow and produce our vegetables, fruits, meat, milk and eggs. Our long-term goal is to be sufficiently productive to sell excess produce, to supplement finances”, it is explained.

Rehabilitation programmes will include swimming, light sport like tennis and horse riding.

Medical staff will be employed on a full-time basis to cater for the needs of those undergoing rehabilitation and to ensure the general health of all are kept at highest possible standard.

One of the secondary phases to the project is the establishment of self-catering accommodation units for family and friends who come and visit their loved ones at the facility.

“It is our greatest hope and sincere trust that our vision will realise of creating a sustainable haven, which offers income and work opportunities for disabled persons.

Note: this Project is endorsed by the Deputy Minister of Disability Affairs Alexia ManombeNcube, in the Ministry of Gender Equality, Poverty Eradication and Social Welfare.

Further inquiries can be lodged to Mrs. Ellen Jacobs (who acts on behalf of the project's management). She can be reached at 081 208 0390 or 081 466 1715.

Press release

The Dome's Elite Athletic in Paris Gymnast's dream did Keanu Stuurman (21 years) is one of The Dome's Elite Athletic team members for the past three years, a dedicated sportsman and achiever with the goal to qualify and represent Namibia at the Tokyo Olympics this year.

His passion for karate has gained him the opportunity to participate at the upcoming Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Paris France.

Keanu derives from a less-privileged household in Swakopmund, challenged by financial and educational difficulties. Though both of his parents are unemployed, he believes in personal growth and to excel in sport as an opportunity to ensure a secure future and to eventually change the circumstances he comes from.

Keanu and Mayvonne Swart from Swakopmund will attend the Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Paris France from 11-13 June due to the support of the Swakopmund Mayoral Development Fund (covering travel and accommodation expenses). Gudrun and Isabelle Bellwinkel (Swakopmund residents) funded the remainder of Keanu's expenses; a model of goodwill and giving.

“The local authority of Swakopmund supports youth and sport development, and karate athletes Keanu and Mayvonne are part of our destiny. Giving is not about a donation, it's about making a difference,” according to Mayor Louisa Kativa.

Keanu's has been training karate since the age of 7 for the past 14 years and his daily routine comprises of four to six hours practise a week with Sensei Valdemar Swart, owner and Dojo Head of Shotokan Karate Academy International (SKAI) in Swakopmund, who is also Keanu's karate coach since the start of his karate training.

SKAI Swakopmund Dojo supports him in karate training fees.

Keanu also combines his training with two sessions at The Dome Gym. He is also one of the athletes who benefits from the Swakop Karate Social Fund which is an initiative by SKAI Swakopmund to support athletes parti-

cipating internationally.

Keanu's has been part of the selected Namibian National Karate Team for the past several years and some of his sport achievements since 2019 includes Shotokan Open Championship (2 x gold); AUSC Region 5 (South) Championships (1 x silver team kumite, 2 x bronze); Namibia Karate Federation National Championships (2 x gold) and Shotokan National Championship (2 x gold).

Since he started karate, his dream was to represent his country Namibia on the World Karate Federation International level. Participating thus at the Olympic Qualifying Event will be proof that the true fundamentals of karate as a sport has led him on his path, which is now come through in his character namely, endeavour to excel, be respectful and be disciplined. This has led to a bright future for him and taught him that anyone can make a difference in their community.

The Dome Academies supported Keanu with gym membership, training and tuition fees and mentorship the past few years as part of their youth development program. “We believe that international exposure will strengthen his talent to achieve a higher level of excellence for him as person and for our country,” according to Ulla Finkeldey, Director at The Dome Academies and professional trainer and mentor to Keanu.

The Swakopmund Mayoral Development Fund sponsored traveling and accommodation costs.

The outstanding amount to enable Keanu to travel has been taken up by benefactors Gudrun and Isabelle Bellwinkel (Swakopmund residents). This action was started by Cllr Claus Goldbeck who approached them.

The Namibian Karate team that are in Paris France are Mayvonne Swart, Michael Nakapandi, Freddy Mwiya Jnr, Suzel Pronk and Keanu Tyrone Stuurman. They will be accompanied by coach, Llewelyn Manale.

The Namibian Gymnasts Carané van Zyl and Thalia Loveira that compete in Egypt at the final qualification round for the Tokyo Olympics Rudi Bowe

The two teenagers Thalia Loveira (18) and Carané van Zyl (17) from Walvis Bay Private High School's big dream of qualifying as trampoline gymnasts for the 2021 Olympic Games did not materialised.

Loveira and Carané eliminated gymnast from South Africa, Algeria and Angola in the elimination round to qualify for the finals at the final qualification round for the Tokyo Olympics.

In final in Cairo, Thalia and Carané went up against the two older Egyptian competitors - with each gymnast only having a single jumping opportunity.

The decision on who would be awarded the only Olympic place for Africa was in the hands of a panel of international judges, who placed the two Egyptians first and second with their points award, followed by Loveira and Van Zyl third and fourth respectively.

Loveira and Van Zyl, who are both equally skilled as tumble gymnasts, will now only have to set their sights on events such as the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, or the world championships in their age group.

The judges told the Namibians that they do have a lot of talent and that this is not the end of the road for them. They just need to work Gudrun Bellwinkel (sponsor), Ulla Finkeldey (Director at The Dome Academies, trainer and hard and stay motivated. mentor), Keanu Stuurman, Mayor Louisa Kavita, Mayvonne Swart, Isabelle Bellwinkel (sponsor) and Cllr Claus Goldbeck
