IPC suspends Ciske Smith-Howard The Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) suspended its Regional Councillor for the Swakopmund Constituency, Cllr Ciske Smith-Howard.

The suspension sent shockwaves throughout the party, and there are also concerns that this could start cracks in the seams of the IPC. Howard-Smith confirmed her suspension to the media, but at the time on Wednesday was still waiting for her suspension letter.

Reports state Smith-Howard was suspended following a meeting with IPC top brass in Windhoek, including the party’s leader Dr. Panduleni Ithula.

Namib Times could establish through reports that Smith-Howard called for the suspension of the IPC’s Henties Bay Councillor, Siegfried Garoëb.

Garoëb was dismissed from the Henties Bay Municipality in 2018 for dishonesty, and Smith-Howard argues he is not suitable to serve as Councillor.

Smith-Howard is also the Chairperson of the Eronto Regional Council and has wasted little time since her election in November 2020 to serve both the community of Swakopmund and the wider Erongo Region.

During the Covid-19 peak earlier this year she under her “Ciske’s Covid Task Force established two Covid-care centres for people waiting to be hospitalised, and organised soup kitchens.

Her latest initiative is a project whereby landmark buildings in Swakopmund is illuminated by night in different colours to commemorate the people who died of Covid-19.

News of her suspension was greeted with different opinions yesterday.

Mostly in her support, and others stating they don’t hope this will start to form cracks in the unity of the Independent Patriots For Change and the party’s future which could include a win in the national and presidential elections in 2024.

Swakopmund’s GRN buildings a disgrace Sharlien Tjambari Municipalities and Town Councils are not responsible for run down government houses, flats and buildings. This must be reported to the Ministry of Works and Transport.

This was made clear by the spokesperson of the Municipality of Swakopmund, Ailie Gebhard recently, after the newspaper made inquiries regarding so many dilapidated Government properties at Swakopmund.

“If a building is found to be a danger, then owners are informed to correct such a danger. If the owners fail to do so, then the building occupation rights are removed through a council decision,” Gebhard said. The government flats on Harder Street in Vineta is a disgrace. The flats are in a terrible condition. The roof is dilapidated and residents battle with sewerage water when sewer lines overflow from the property.

In the case of rains, the roof cannot protect the building's interior and the situation worsens each season. Another building of concern is the head office of the Ministry of Health and Social Services in Swakopmund which is suffering structural decay as a result of neglect.

Water works at Windhoek with the Goreangab dam in the background

Forbes and the CEO Mr Muronga Haingura, is on a familisarisation visit to Windhoek to acquaint themselves with the operations of the city's Gammams and Goreangab wastewater treatment plants.

Windhoek is rehabilitating its waste water to drinkable water for approximately five decades already, and is regarded as a leader in this field in Africa.

Welcoming the delegation, the Acting Chief Executive Officer of the City of Windhoek, Mr Mujiwa Mayumbelo, praised the continuing good relations between Windhoek and Walvis Bay. The City of Windhoek and Walvis Bay Municipality cooperate in many areas. This includes capacity building through training and interest to extend their cooperation to include areas of water security, emergency services, land delivery, and housing.

It was also said by Mayumbelo a tri-partite inter-municipal agreement would soon be signed between City of Windhoek, Walvis Bay and Swakopmund to further the scope of collaboration between the three biggest local authorities in Namibia.

With regard to water treatment, the Gammams wastewater treatment plant has a daily output of between 32 000 and 38 000 cubic metres per day.

Through funds by Germany the plant will be upgraded and expanded and grow the output to 50 000 cubic meters per day. Germany's Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) will fund the project at a cost of N$10 million.

A New School

A new school for pre-primary learners was completed this month by Tutungeni Precast and handed over to HappyDu, an Italian non-governmental organisation operating a number of schemes in Namibia.

In fact, Tutungeni's construction team has moved on to Rundu to complete another of these projects in time for next year's school-opening. The magic of the collaboration between HappyDu and Tutungeni, lies in the affordability, speed and versatility of the buildings Tutungeni is offering.

Namibia's housing backlog can be addressed by cutting red tape and accepting innovation. Especially in the low-cost housing categories, there are many innovative, off the shelf, answers for the shortage of thousands of units for the poorest of the poor, while these building methods can provide immediate solutions to catastrophic events like resettlement after shack fires and natural disasters.

In this regard Tutungeni Precast came up with such an alternative building method some years ago already and went through the laborious process of getting all the required certification from a number of local authorities in an effort to roll out some serious numbers.

In fact, with Swakopmund's Municipality as the latest subscriber, township life at the coast is set to change forever and with a little help from friends (in the financing business or perhaps employers providing housing for employees) decent living conditions in the informal settlements are now a very real possibility.

To take the concept of precast buildings further and to demonstrate the worth of the methodology, the managing director of Tutungeni, Mr Wessel Loubser, is now busy with the construction of yet another school in Swakopmund's Mondesa Suburb. Funds for the school was donated by an Italian nongovernmental organisation, HappyDu (www. happydu.org) who, are no strangers to Namibia. A similar structure for pre-schoolers and after school care were erected by Tutungeni in the Havana-township in Windhoek. In the same fashion a number of government schools in remote areas were erected, while farmers and industry has called in the expertise of Tutungeni.

Most importantly, Tutungeni's contribution to cheaper, durable housing, that is designed for individual taste, style and affordability is cutting it with banks and urban authorities alike. Swakopmund, Windhoek, Rundu, Rehoboth and a number of other jurisdictions are comfortable with the Tutungeniproduct, as long as all certification is in place and the structures have been signed off by structural engineers. At least one commercial bank is on board and willing to finance such houses, subject to some very normal commercial conditions.

In Namibia, where acess to affordable housing remains an almost insurmountable task, the Tutungeni concept might just be the answer to persistent socioeconomic challenges. Namibians demand housing and a place to call home.

With the number of structures already erected in urban areas, the Tutungeni Building concept has now evolved into a bankable investment for venture capitalist to consider. "Of course,", said Mr Loubser, "we will listen to prospective investors who might be interested in investing in our company. That is business and we offer a proven concept, with a back-up of history, all the negotiations with local authorities, banks and engineers. It is, in the light of the housing backlog and the variety of housing needs that exists, perhaps one of the best investment opportunities one can think of. Just recently, the Minister of Fisheries, Mr Derek Klazen, mentioned that donating tins of fish as social responsibility is not always the answer. Perhaps the big players in the fishing industry should invest in housing for certain categories of workers and get workers out of the ghetto's they are now living in."

Tutungeni Precast's flagship projects remain the two schools that were build in Windhoek and at Swakopmund for the Italian NGO, HappyDu. These projects were done cheaply, in budget and on time, demonstrating the effectiveness of the building innovation.

After all, it is precast, it is plastered, painted and properly roofed to last a lifetime. What is more, Tutungeni delivers a product that is affordable and it can be financed, insured and as it is modular in design, it can be added on to.

Tutungeni's houses comes with water and electricity connections, basic finishes as to customer's request and within local authority specs. Tutungeni has a portfolio of projects that varies from schools, clinics, tourism, housing for labourers, store rooms, shops and temporary shelter at mines that were later turned into proper houses.

If the Tutungeni building concept was utilised in Walvis Bay, when 134 ghettos were destroyed in a massive fire last year, the comparative example could be considered that many more houses could have bee built in a fraction of the time it took to house the victims, said Mr Loubser. "In the main, the Tutungeni-structure is built on a normal foundation and surface base with prefabricated panels that is then plastered and painted over. The roofing structure is designed from light steel galvanised steel, and at the coast we use fibre cement roofing plates. The speed and durability are in the simplicity of the structures," he said.

As these houses are built in modelled sections, owners can add to structures as and when the need arises.

Doughnut Bar will open its doors to the public soon Sharlien Tjambari

The 1877 Doughnut Bar which is situated on the Swakopmund Jetty, will open its doors to the public on 29 October this year. The Bar sells doughnuts that are not oily but fresh, soft in the inside with a crunchy crust.

Karen who is ambitious with everything she does, says her motivation to open the 1877 Doughnut Bar was her son, “a couple of months ago my son said he has been everywhere in Namibia and could not find a decent doughnut, that is when the idea was born”.

She said, when making doughnuts, not only the dough must be perfect, but all the ingredients must be well coordinated with each other. She uses eleven different types of ingredients when making a doughnut, so her doughnuts are not ordinary. She said: “This is the only way to create a perfect taste experience for our customers and to keep our customers happy. We give you a taste that was forgotten in time”.

According to Karen, the yeast she uses originates from her great-grand-mother from the 1800s.

Karen and her husband André said they make their doughnuts according to the German craftmanship and tradition. They said: “the traditional way of doughnut making is very time consuming.

You will never forget this taste. These doughnuts will be your reference for every doughnut that you will eat for the rest of your life. We only produce

products of the highest quality, quality you can taste and fall in love with”.

Karen is a qualified gourmet cook and has years of experience in the Guest industry. She was introduced to the world of cooking and baking by her mother as a child. When she was 6-years-old she baked her first cake which was a bit firm, but with a very nice taste.

The shop not only sells doughnuts but cakes as well.

Cakes are baked on request and are also baked according to the German craftmanship. Karen said: “We use fresh cream and butter. The price depends on the cake”.

The 1877 Doughnut Bar offers free deliveres if you place an order of N$500 or more in Swakopmund or you can pick up your order. Orders are placed a day before you can pick it up. They deliver doughnuts and cakes to you for your Doughnut party, Birthday, Company functions, Wedding, Christmas, New Year parties etc.

“You see, I believe that life is not measured by the amounts of breaths we take, it is moments like this that take our breath away, I will use

all the breaths I take to take your breath away,” Sitzer said.

The new Junior Mayor said when she first heard that she is to be the next junior mayor, “I was exhilarated, and a few hours later, reality struck and I asked myself how am I going to pull this off, then I remembered that I have an amazing team of councillors.”

The new Junior Chief Executive Officer Nadine Willemse said she believes that this impressive group of councillors is and will be the best that Walvis Bay has ever encountered.

Willemse said, “My goal is not just to empower and uplift the youth, but also to empower councillors to come out of their comfort zones and invest in the platform they are given.”

According to Willemse the year will be a busy one as they planed the following; A talent show, a Superhero and Disney Day project where councillors dress up as Superheroes' or Disney characters to

visit orphanages to entertain children, embarking on an education campaign, are some of the projects the new junior council is planning. Other projects include a debate and spelling bee, clean ups, fun walks, run or cycle events and a movie night.

The outgoing Junior Mayor Kristine Shetuyenga said serving on council has helped her and the councillors grow mentally and prepared them for their next journey.

Shetuyenga said, “We interacted more with the youth than we initially anticipated.

This was due to the challenges brought on

by Covid-19 and our commitment to make sure that we serve the youth.”

She shared with the new councillors the journey won't be easy and that they should remember, it is not about the title but about the people you serve.

“The youth of Walvis Bay is counting on you.

Let you be the change we desire to see and the voice of the voiceless,” Shetuyenga said

Paulse said, “Every year a certain percentage of the charcoal sold to companies abroad, is allocated towards the committee. The committee members then check where the need is in Walvis Bay, where they have a depot, or Okahandja where Jumbo Charcoal's head office is located.”

Ms Paulse said “JCFTC also gave donations in the form of textbooks to eight government schools in Okahandja, the installation of community taps at Nau-aib, shelter for the Okahandja State Hospital, mattresses and beds to charcoal burners on various farms, English literature classes and a vegetable garden for Jumbo Charcoal employees in Okahandja, and most recently, desks and chairs for Flamingo Primary in Walvis Bay. Paulse challenges local companies to help schools not only Flamingo. “There are so many other schools that we as business can look after. “Let us start fighting for our future teachers, lawyers and doctors and to ensure that our children have a safe space when they attend school.”

The committee also visited other schools in Walvis Bay to see where else they can assist in the future.

The Principal of Flamingo Primary, Emsie Orus,said that the new school desk and chairs are for four finished class rooms that were built by a group of parents with the schools management and board.

Orus said, “The group decided not sit and wait for the Government to build the classrooms at the school. They started with fundraising to build the seven classrooms needed at the school and with the little money that was raised, small contribution from some of the parents and generous contribution from companies, the building of the four classrooms were done.

The Principal expressed her gratitude to Jumbo Fair Trade Committee for the donation of the school desks and chairs. “You can be ensuried that we provide quality education in a conducive environment.”

“We will look after the donated items to make sure that future generations can also make use of it. We want you to visit after a year, and see how we have taken care of your donation,” Orus said.

Orus challenges the business community to help the school that educates 80% of disadvantage families. “We have in-complete classes. Children sitting in garages, it's not a pretty picture. We have qualified teachers that provide quality education and we want to ensure we have a con-ducive environment for our children. The need at the school is still very big.”

ISWB visits charity organisations Rudi Bowe

The grade 9 learners of the International School of Walvis Bay(ISWB) did their part at World Food Day by visiting and sponsored various items and food to charity organisations at the coast.

The learners were divided into four groups that visited and spent time with the people and donated various items to Promiseland, SPCA, Kavita's Kitchen and Ruach Elohim charity organisations.

Ms Luischen Sirakis from ISWB said the groups collected an overall amount of about N$8 000 by selling cupcakes and hot chocolate and used the money to buy products the charities needed.

According to Ms. Sirakis, “Dischem Swakopmund allowed one group to place donation boxes in the store to collect items for Ruach Elohim, while Metro Walvis Bay sponsored the ingredients for the cupcakes.

Ms Sirakis said, “What a wonderful experience it was for these students and our community members demonstrating their open hands and caring hearts.”

“It was a remarkable school effort and everyone supported the learners,” Ms Sirakis said.

The learners in their groups were: Wavey Crew: NelaoAngula, Nathan le Roux, Alison Jalon, Laura Hidengwa and Janeta Mwapopile Purity: Talitha de Klerk, Raquel Theron, Johannes Nuujoma, Gita Peliganga and Nolan du Plessis AHPG: Turee Perestrelo, Rayne Binneman, Precious Nangolo and Sinclair Halupe The Promise: Cesar Fernandes, Kundayi Muganga, Monica David and Florence Simon

Marsh Namibia Tees It Up At Rossmund For more than a decade Marsh Namibia, one of the leading insurance brokers in Namibia, has been sponsoring the Rossmund Club Championships.

Due to the challenging time of Covid -19, the competition was postponed this year and only took place over the past week. It was inevitable that the wind played a role this time around. The South Wester stamped its mark on day one of the competition with sandy winds of around 40kmph. This caused considerable havoc with the firstround scores especially on hole number eight.

In the A Division, Chris Durant managed to post a gross score of 76 three shots ahead of nearest rival Hans Naobeb, while well-known names such as Kevin Wentzel and Stephanus Bonifacius could only manage an 80 and 82 gross, respectively.

Day one B Division honours went to Helmut Ndjendja carding an 84 gross with Miguel Tordesillas close on his heels with an 86; in the C Division Athol McLean and Sebulon Tsuseb were neck and neck on 94 gross. Justin Naobeb lead the Juniors Division and Mariena Ludwig had her nose in front by the Ladies Division.

Day two brought much improved weather conditions although some of the golfers were still a bit disorientated and did not manage to improve their scores – there were 2-clubs coming from Stephanus Bonifacius and Dean Kock.

The leader however managed to keep his cool and played some consistent golf to shoot a second round 76 gross with Kevin Wentzel and Stephanus Bonifacius coming into the mix with a 77 & 78 gross respectively. David Peake set the cat amongst the pigeons in the B Division carding an 86 gross but failed to topple the leader Helmut Ndjendja who came into the clubhouse with an 80 gross. The C Division leader Athol Mclean shot an 87 gross to give him the division title and in the Ladies Division - Justine Shikulo had the best round of the day with a 107 gross.

Marlene Bougaard from Marsh Namibia was on hand from the sponsor to assist at the prize giving.

Results: Overall Gross and 2021 Club Champion is Chris Durant 152 with Kevin Wentzel 157 second place. The Overall Net winner is Willie van Zyl 144 c/o, with Helmut Ndjendja 144 second.

A Division Gross winner Stephanus Bonifacius 160, with Hans Naobeb 166 second and the Nett winner is Andrew van Schalkwyk 150, with Des Benson 154 second.

B Division Gross winner is David Peake 177, with George Murasiki 179 as the runner up and the Nett winner is Achmet Abrahams 154 with Marco Swarts 156 the runner up.

C Division Gross winner is Athol McLean 181 with John Horne 189 second and the Nett winner is Sebulon Tsuseb 153 with Richard Matzi 160 second.

The Ladies Gross and 2021 Club Champion is Tiekie De Wet 224 with Mariena Ludwig 225 second and the Nett winner is Justine Shikulo 155. The Junior Gross Winner was Justin Naobeb 151.

FCS: Louw Greyvenstein, Robert Schaaf, Zola Nel and Alan Hartung

PAR 3 competition at WBGC The Walvis Bay Golf Club held the popular PAR 3 competition last week at their Golf course.

Braving Walvis Bay the somewhat ideal weather conditions more aligned for wind surfing than golf, 34 players participated on a great format of golf from different tee off positions.

The winner of the day was Grant Mather with the first prize and the trophy on a best gross of 63. The best Nett was won by none other than one of the sponsors, Boel Grobbelaar on 57.5, the prize for the second best Nett went Poena Johnson on 60 with Emile Vilbert on 61 in third spot with Wynand Breytenbach [61.25], Amandio Sardinha [62] and Wayne Hart [62.5] in forth, fifth and six respectively.

There were two lucky draws which were convincingly won by last year's winner, Tienie de Wet and Andre Burger, who is now becoming the luckiest golfer in the club. Jaco de Witt was at the prize giving to hand out the prizes and on the photo are Jaco de Witt, Grant Mather and Morne Roux our own Trevor Noah.

It is reported that this event will be staged again next year, without the small print of 'weather permitting'.

Our thanks go to Jaco de Witt, Boel Grobbelaar and Pieter Hamman for their wonderful sponsorship for the event.

On the point of sponsors we have had a few over the past few weeks and the club is now the proud owner of a sod cutter and a new lawn mower for the aprons. We

have acknowledged the sponsors on the social platforms and we are truly spoilt when it comes to sponsors and to all of them, we are very grateful.
