Swakop-moordverdagte in Karasburg vasgetrek Marshallino Beukes
‘n Moeder se vasberadenheid om haar seun se moordenaar aan die pen te laat ry, asook die wakker optrede deur die Namibiese polisie, het kort voor Nuwejaar gelei tot die inhegtenisneming in Karasburg, van die verdagte in die Steven Eigab-moordsaak. Page 2

Double accident
Eigab is op 7 Junie 2014 in Swakopmund se Mondesa woonbuurt met ‘n mes doodgesteek, na ‘n rusie tussen hom en ‘n vriend. Die oorledene het op die toneel aan die wond beswyk en die verdagte het op die vlug geslaan. Volgens wyle Eigab se familie is die verdagte bekend aan die polisie, maar tog het dit voorgekom asof die saak ‘n
doodloopstraat bereik het, met geen leidrade wat opgevolg is om die voortvlugtende op te spoor nie. Mevrou Sophia Eigas (56), die oorledene se moeder, het op ‘n stadium aan die koerant genoem dat dit vir haar voel asof die betrokke ondersoekbeampte, in daardie stadium, geen snars omgegee het om inligting (wat deur haarself aan hom verskaf is) op te volg nie.
Sy het haar na die Erongo polisie se hoofkwartier in Walvisbaai gewend en haar ontevredenheid en ongelukkigheid, rakende die manier waarop die saak ondersoek word, uitgespreek. Die inhegtenisname van die verdagte het gevolg nadat ‘n familielid van die vermoorde Eigab vir die vakansie na Karasburg gereis het en per abuis verneem het dat die verdagte homself Vervolg op bladsy 2

Deputy Commissioner Andreas Nelumbu yesterday confirmed again that the Erongo police are investigating the matter. “This is standard procedure for all vehicle accidents, where people are killed,” Nelumbu commented. He noted that all the witnesses will be questioned and a docket will then be forwarded to the office of the Prosecutor General, whereafter the PG will decide if anyone should be charged with culpable homicide. He further noted that one of the survivors, and driver of one of the vehicles, Mr Jandre Dippenaar, is still in hospital and that they have to give him a chance to recover, before he might also be questioned. He has
emphasised the fact that it is not an obligation to question Mr Dippenaar. Six people, three German tourists and three Namibians, were killed in the accident Dippenaar was involved in. The Ford Ranger bakkie, in which the tourists were travelling, collided with the Toyota FJ Cruiser driven by Dippenaar, which burst into flames on impact. In this fatal head-on collision, the German tourists, Dr Marcus Joschko (48), his wife, Dr Stephanie Dorothea Schemuch-Joschko (49) and his daughter, Alexandra Marlene Joschko (19) were killed. Three Namibians also lost their lives and were identified as
Dina Pretorius (30), Charlene Schoombe (24) and the 27-year old JC Horn. The daughter and sister of the late German tourists, Antonia Joschko (16) was seriously injured, but has already been discharged from the Welwitschia Hospital in Walvis Bay and has returned to Germany. The gruesome head-on collision on 29 December was allegedly caused by reckless driving and speeding. There are allegations that Dippenaar had been warned by a traffic officer for speeding, shortly before the accident and that two more occupants of his vehicle had refused to drive with him from Swakopmund to Henties Bay as he was allegedly

driving at high speed. All these allegations are being investigated. Meanwhile, according to our sources at the Roman Catholic Hospital in Windhoek, Jandre Dippenaar’s condition is improving day by day. “He is stable and improving, but still under ICU observation.” The health state of Dippenaar is being closely followed by the whole of Namibia, due to the serious nature of the charges Dippenaar could face, under which culpable homicide and alternatively a charge of
reckless or negligent driving. Unlike the 2002 accident, where millions of Namibian dollars were claimed in the case of Belgian tourists who had died, no huge funds will be paid out in the case of the German family. The law regarding such payments has changed since 2002. The MVA has made provisions to pay out N$7 000 for funeral expenses for foreigners who die in the accidents, and that would include the three German deceased.

daar bevind en ook dat hy (verdagte) blykbaar inwoners van die dorpie ook op hol gehad het met sy gewelddadige neigings. Die familielid het mevrou Eigas gekontak en in kennis gestel, waarna sy onmiddellik die polisie in Swakopmund gekontak het. Die polisie in Karasburg is in kennis gestel en nadat ‘n lasbrief vir die verdagte se inhegtenisneming na hulle korrespondeer is, is die moordverdagte in hegtenis geneem. Die koerant het gister bevestiging gekry dat hy tans in die Karibib aanhoudingselle gevange gehou word, totdat hy oor die naweek na Swakopmund oorgeplaas gaan word, waar hy amptelik aangekla gaan word. Hy gaan Maandag, 12 Januarie, sy eerste hofver-
skyning in die Swakopmund Magistraatshof maak. Sy naam mag nie bekend gemaak word, aangesien hy nog nie formeel aangekla is nie. Mevrou Eigas kon nie haar dankbaarheid en verligting onderdruk, nadat sy nuus van hierdie verwikkelinge ontvang het nie. “Nou kan geregtigheid uiteindelik geskied, het sy genoem. Dit pla haar egter dat die polisie glad nie wil gebruik maak van ‘n ooggetuie, wat blykbaar die moord en voorafgaande rusie aanskou het, nie. “Hierdie seun het alles met sy eie oë gesien, maar hulle wil liewer getuies, wat nie regtig weet wat gebeur het nie, gebruik. Dit kan die saak teen die verdagte in die wiele ry en geregtigheid gaan dan nie seëvier nie,” is haar mening.

House number 17 on Aloe Street in Ocean View residential area in Swakopmund was causing tension between the previous and current owner after Mr Christian Diebold bought a house at the price of N$3.1 million from Mr Deon Miljo. According to Diebold, Miljo was given notice to vacate the house on 3 January 2015 but Miljo ignored the order, he even denied that there was such notice. On Monday, the Diebold family decided to take matters into their own hands and broke the locks of the gate to get access. The namib times could not get any comment from Miljo as he said he was waiting
for his lawyer to talk to the media. During the meeting on Monday, it was decided that the two parties should both stay on the premises until the Miljo family move out, and the Miljo family was given time till Wednesday to vacate. The Diebold family was to sleep in the flat on the premises while the Miljo family was to remain in the house until Wednesday. But on Monday night the Miljo family packed their bags and left the house, they returned on Tuesday morning for the rest of their furniture. The Diebolds were very relieved.
Looking back on Festive Season road issues Madelaine Laubscher
Westcoast Safety Initiative has given an update on the traffic related incidents that occurred during the Festive Season and what should be addressed in order to send a positive message about the safety of our roads. The spokesperson was asked what message is being portrayed. He said that some shortfalls need to be addressed but that all went well in general. “Taking into consideration the traffic volumes, all went well. However, 34 200 emergency packs were distributed in total, which were 4 200 more than planned. The flow of traffic towards the coast spread over a large period, therefore no high traffic volumes or issues were recorded initially. However after the Christmas period, over 1 100 vehicles were recorded on the B2 route per hour between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay, which was the highest ever for a festive period and at the Swakopmund roadblock, almost 1 000 vehicles per hour but peaked for a very short period. Motorists planned their travelling arrangements much better this year and the flow of traffic spread over a much larger period, especially into January. Thus, explaining less serious traffic issues and accidents. However, we received numerous complaints regarding reckless drivers during this period,” he said. According to this spokesperson the downfall were 14 road fatalities thus far. “These involved the following: On the B2 route a vehicle hit a kudu causing
one fatality. At Usakos a vehicle hit a truck head-on causing one fatality. On the C34 route a head on collision occurred between a bakkie and an SUV, causing six fatalities. In Henties Bay a child was knocked down by a vehicle causing a fatality. In Narravile a 22-year old girl died in hospital after an accident. On the C33 near Omaruru a minibus overturned, causing four fatalities. Shockingly, it was mostly children or economically active people that died,” he said. He mentioned that a near drowning occurred in the Langstrand area, involving three people, when they attempted to rescue four children and ended up being in trouble themselves, but said that the incident was fortunately brought under control. “Quad bikes should be addressed. The legislation must be changed. The problem areas involve Mile 4, Oceanview, Langstrand and to a limited extent in Meersig and the Lagoon area. Fireworks caused problems thus there is a petition going around to ban fireworks. Alcohol abuse in public areas remains a concern. People include the use of alcohol with dangerous activities such as swimming and driving. We are also aware of drugs being sold with the youth as the main target,” he concluded.

Benefactor Pays Overdue Water Leandrea Louw Bills of Pensioners Knowledge Katti, business entrepreneur and philanthropist, spread the Christmas cheer by paying part or all of the money owed by over 180 pensioners on their overdue municipal water accounts. He paid an amount of N$120 107.20 on December 24 and this allowed the pensioners identified over the areas of Kuisebmond and Narraville to enjoy water during the festive season. Personal friend and community activist, Mr Duban Benson says that Katti approached him and asked what he could do for the people in Walvis Bay. "I told him each year we hand over food parcels to the community, why not try something different this year, as the people here, many of them, do not have water. Many of them have been without water for the past 12 to 15 years. I showed him two individuals and he was visibly touched by this, as he provided these
individuals with taxi fare and told them to go to the Municipality to ask how much they were in arrears. Upon their return we learned they were in arrears with N$7 000 and N$23 000 respectively. It was with those two individuals that this started." Katti then instructed Benson to identify other pensioners in a similar situation and initiated negotiations on behalf of them with Walvis Bay Municipality General Manager, Mr Frans Gonteb. Upon enquiry, Gonteb confirmed that Katti had indeed approached the municipality on behalf of the pensioners and paid a lump sum to have the disconnected water accounts reconnected on

Internal investigation Double accident confirms favouritism Piquet Jacobs
Earlier enquiries by Nampa into the alleged favouritism claims by some members of the force at the Swakopmund Police Station triggered the investigations. Members of the force complained to Nampa that acting Station Commander Inspector Katrina Eberenz does not treat everyone equally. Allegations are that Eberenz has favourite staff members at the station, whom she allegedly accord special treatment when it comes to arranging annual leave and deployment to duty stations. “We are really tired of the situation, she does not treat everyone the same. It is only some people who work while others are just sitting and getting paid, she does not care at all,” said an officer. Other officers who spoke to Nampa on condition of anonymity, alleged that Eberenz spend most of her time in the office chatting to a certain Sergeant Sisanda and Sergeant Hofrichter.
The two sergeants are accused of being too close to the acting station commander, so much so that they allegedly do not go work at roadblock as often but rather spend most of their time in the company of the boss. When it comes to arranging annual leave, Eberenz apparently only grants leave to her favourite officers and denied others leave by stating that they are needed to enforce the force manpower. Officers said such situations happen during the festive season when agreements are made that officers should not take leave during the months of December to mid January every year. Disappointed force members indicated that despite such agreements, some people at the station were allowed to go on leave. Another officer noted that even those who approach Eberenz with requests to go attend family funerals are being turned down. “They must just transfer
her and give us someone else. People are tired and are applying for transfers to leave the station,” said another member. Deputy Commander of the Namibian Police Force (NamPol) in Erongo Region, Deputy Commissioner Andreas Nelumbu told Nampa on Thursday that the allegations against the station commander were indeed true. Nelumbu could however not get into specific details about the confirmed allegations, but promised to do so when the investigations are fully complete. “We are still investigating, because there is a lot more to what you were told. When investigations are complete, we will report to the head office in Windhoek and thereafter appropriate measures will be taken to address the situation,” he said. He used the opportunity to urge officers in the region to raise their grievances through internal channels. Nelumbu said although he understands that the media is the mouthpiece

Lower crime statistics at Coast during Festive season Marshallino Beukes
The Erongo police commented that the coast experienced a relatively quiet festive season, regarding serious crimes committed. Deputy Commissioner Andreas Nelumbu has told the namib times that, although lots of visitors swamped the
coast, holiday goers behaved themselves, which led to a peaceful holiday season, with only three fatal vehicle accidents re-
ported. No serious crimes, such as murder, or armed robberies occurred over the past few holiday weeks.
Nelumbu noted that, compared to the previous December holiday, crime figures have drastically dropped.

Two accidents happened minutes after each other when a driver lost control of his vehicle and the vehicle overturned, meters before the roadblock en route from Swakopmund. Minutes thereafter, another accident occurred when a vehicle stopped suddenly at the scene of the first accident, causing the
driver behind him, driving a sedan car, to step on the brakes and turn off the road and a police van to collide into the sedan car.
The authorities arrived at the scene to tend to these accidents and to clear the road from obstruction. No injuries were recorded.
Traffic update Traffic Department and West Coast Safety Initiative on patrol Madelaine Laubscher This festive season held fewer visitors to the coast when looking at the traffic volumes recorded, says the Walvis Bay senior traffic officer, Mr Clifton Jacobs. He says the Traffic Department succeeded in their task, compared to previous festive seasons. “There was a lot less traffic recorded and fewer visitors. At certain periods the traffic volume was heavy but quickly passed. The only big problem we had involved trucks that did not use the road behind Dune 7 as was requested, causing a build-up of traffic. There were in fact no accidents between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund this festive season,” he said. According to Jacobs there were two reported accidents on the road behind Dune 7, but injuries sustained were minor. “We are aware of 14 reported accidents in the Erongo Region. There were fewer accidents and the town was quiet. When issues occurred we resolved it success-
fully. Nine reckless drivers were reported and charged and eight people were charged for drunken driving, which is a lot fewer than usual. We saw that most people made use of designated drivers when they had too much to drink, which is very good,” he said. Jacobs mentioned that seven quad bike riders were charged for riding without a helmet and nine were charged for not having a licence. “The quad bikes were also kept under control. When complaints surfaced we had the assistance of the Long Beach Neighbourhood Watch and the issues were quickly solved,” Jacobs said. He mentioned that a huge problem to them was the fireworks and that some-
thing drastic needs to be done about this issue. “On 31 December we were contacted non-stop about the fireworks. Many people complained that their dogs, out of fright, ran into doors and injured themselves. I strongly advise people who make use of fireworks to do so outside neighbourhoods, far away from people and animals as it causes a huge disturbance.” According to Jacobs holiday goers wanting to visit the coast can be assured that our roads are kept safe. “The roads at the coast are safe to travel on and any issues arising are kept under control, thus visitors can feel safe travelling on our roads.”

Permits
Obtain a permit from the Namibian Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MFMR) to catch fish or dive for crayfish and respect harvesting limitations. WHY? The marine resources are limited and currently some of them are overfished or over collected. It is necessary that everybody uses them wisely and carefully to secure the future harvesting needs by protecting the stock. Quantity/number of marine resources harvestable, minimum size limits of fish and crayfish that can be caught, open season etc. help to manage stocks to avoid the total disappearance of some species in our waters. Do not leave bait or fish on the beach! Either take it home or return it to the sea. This food attracts scavengers like jackals and gulls that prey on other bio-diversity. When you are back home after the holiday, it also inflates the predator population. Where can you get a license for angling, crayfish diving & bait/mussels collection?

Grootbek op Vrydag Stilte na die storm…
Kus-inwoners kan uiteindelik 'n sug van verligting slaak, nadat die meeste binnelanders en ander besoekers hul pad huis toe gevind het. Die ekonomie teen die kus het weereens 'n geweldige hupstoot gekry, met besoekers en ook inwoners wat, soos gewoonlik gedurende die Feesseisoen, nie twee keer gedink het om die beursies om te dop nie.
Besigheidseienaars en veral verblyfplekke lag al die pad bank toe, terwyl die meeste verbruikers met 'n moewiese hoofpyn, as gevolg van oorspandering opgeskeep sit. Drankmisbruik en partytjies was aan die orde van die dag, sommige reke-
ninge is einde Desember oorgeslaan, want daardie sente is “nodig” om vakansie mee te hou en nou dat realiteit intree, rus 'n donker wolk van selfverwyt en moedeloosheid oor baie van die “party animals”. Jaar na jaar is dit dieselfde kringloop in baie van ons
se lewens, om nie eens te praat van die Nuwejaarsvoornemens, waarvan baie alreeds in duisende skerwe lê… Die feestelike gees wat gedurende Desembermaande heers is soos 'n dwelm en is hoogs aansteeklik ook! Januariemaand word deur baie beskryf as 'n “bankrotmaand”, maar as ons gaan nabetraging doen sal ons waarneem dat ons Kersfees-bonusse meer as
spesifieke werk aanvaar het – net soos die verslaggewer wat sy werk gedoen het op die betrokke dag. genoeg was om ons deur die Feesseisoen, sowel as die “bankrot-maand” te dra. Verantwoordelike besteding, selfdissipline en bietjie minder tiermelk is die wenresep vir 'n voordie-wind-Januariemaand! Maar ja, wie dink nou daaraan tydens die Feesseisoen, dis mos 'n tyd vir kuier met familie en vriende, partytjies, koop, en nogmaals koop… Januariemaand sorg vir homself! Soos 'n vriend my via sms
Inwoners betaal vir hierdie dienste en dit is hoe hul (munisipale werknemers) salarisse betaal word.

N$441.1 million housing project scuffle resolved A sub-contractor for the 441.1 million Namibian dollar NHE housing project in Walvis Bay, Olivier Builders, confirmed yesterday that they have eventually received their full payment for construction work done on the project, after bitter dissatisfaction in the week of 29 November, because of initial non-payment by the 7Sirs Group, which is tasked with the construction of 1 595 houses in Walvis Bay, Kuisebmond. Frank Boye: Lucky it wasn’t the Chinese! Then they would never have gotten the money! Kim Yung Ill: Nambabwe!
Anna Kee Maldri Josti: Finally they got paid for the pity work they have done, if they call it houses.
Young man shoots himself
A 21-year-old man from Walvis Bay in the Erongo Region has a bullet stuck in the leg after he accidentally shot himself with a pistol he stole from his father. Ivan Nel: Nou is die arme pa in die sous. Ek Sal daai kind rus rus m...r. Wat was Sy intensie. Craig Campbell: Was the gun loaded already when it was stored in the safe? Cos that cud be a f.....k up. Paul Nakale Z: Oh... Frank Vermeulen: Well Boet I am glad it is a tale of

Property Tension “Enough is enough”
WAIT! STOP! DEFINITELY don’t roll hesitantly into the lane with fast-moving traffic, get halfway there and then decide it was a bad idea, stop, and then either cause a crash, oncoming traffic to slam on their brakes, etc. The second worst thing to do once you are stopped in the middle of the lane is to try to back up with other cars behind you ... yeah, you made that pickle. Learned AND Born: Jerk drivers. These people weave in and out of lanes, through heavy traffic, with no blinkers, at high speeds, cut people off within centimeters, and just expect everyone to get out of their way. YOU are Grade-A jerk. Under no circumstances are you that important and you are literally putting HUNDREDS of people in danger. Knock it off. Born: Oblivious Drivers. Now I’m sure you’ve run across people like this in life, but put these people in a car, and you’ve got yourself a problem. Changing lanes without looking, casu-
ally running lights because they forgot to look at what color the light is, starting a left-hand turn in one lane to end up in the other, backing out of parking spots without checking for traffic, you know what I mean. Take a look around, person! The world exists around you, and you are not in a protected bubble that just magically takes care of you– you are probably leaving a trail of swerving, honking, swearing drivers in your wake because they were paying attention and you weren’t! 3. If you have ever done any of these things … have no fear. You are curable. Bad driving is not a lifelong sentence. Be NICE while driving, watch out for yourself AND others. Stay calm and realize: you will still get wherever you are going even if you don’t drive 130 km/h. And PLEASE- keep in mind that many innocent people could end up hurt from one person’s bad driving! Not worth it, people! Disgruntled motorist

House number 17 on Aloe Street, Ocean View in Swakopmund, is causing tension between the previous and current owner after Mr Christian Diebold bought a house at the price of N$3,1 million from Mr Deon Miljo. Am-plo Myc Desy-pax: I don’t understand this matter. Glendyrr Bailey: We bought the house three months ago and the previous owners refused to move out. Long and short. Tony Miljo: You people don’t have all the facts to comment on this. No one knows what happened there. The facts in the newspapers are also not correct. Glendyrr Bailey: Tony Miljo the article has nothing but the facts! Ask me, I was involved since day one! Dessy Niikesho: He want both 3.1mil and a house too..... kkkkkkkkk no my brother... big heart.com. swakop. Andelene Eksteen: OMW and if civil become murder. Zeldrien Norma Guriras: Miljo sold the house to Diebold but was currently again renting the house own by Diebold that he refuses to move out Diebold stay in Kenya.

1. You will read this and either say, “I am not a bad driver” OR you will read this and say, “Maybe you just drive like a grandma, you deserve it!” If you think/say either of these things ... you are probably a bad driver. A circle of hell is reserved for you, where you will be forever trapped behind a small, elderly lady driving 25 km/h in a 65 km/h zone, one lane, and no chance of passing– good luck with that. 2. Some bad drivers are born that way… some bad drivers learn their habits: Born: Some people are just born too nervous, too anxious, whatever, and it leads to them being a bad driver. These people often drive WAY to slow (or in some cases, too fast) and make decisions only because they have run out of time to make the CORRECT decision. Example: If you aren’t sure whether or not there is enough time for you to make a turn into already moving traffic without getting hit ... THEN DON’T GO!
who out of the flat? Why would Miljo case Diebold out of the flat? Who’s house is it hano? Aine I am confused? Where was the Diebold’s coming from with their luggage? Zeldrien Norma Guriras: If u read it over again then you will get the full story they buy the house no outstanding money left & if so that previous owner should have used that space to be still in the house. Am-plo Myc Desy-pax: If you paid his N$3.1 million in full cash as the previous owner of the house requested you to pay, what the heck are they still doing in your house. They must be chased the hell out coz they were paid. If you failed to pay their amount, then it’s your problem. Am-plo Myc Desy-pax: Ahaaa! When you bought the house from them, did you give them their N$3.1 million? Diebold Patrick: Og.

Fireworks cause havoc
After New Year’s Eve the SPCA had their hands full trying to catch dogs and cats that fled from home, in an attempt to get away from the fireworks in neighbourhoods. Sadly this caused some dogs to lose their lives. Mario Steenkamp: Fireworks moet net geban word en klaar. Peter Baron Van Ginkel: Dit is baie maklik, daar is 'n wet wat baie duidelik bepaal dat 'n han-
delaar 'n lesensie moet he en dat die persoon wat vuurwerke koop ook 'n permit van die minister van veiligheid moet hê. Meskien kan namib times
dit 'n bietjie met die minister opvolg, en hoekom handelaars vuurwerke verkoop sonder om vir mense hulle permitte te vra en dan moet die handelaars 'n boek hê met
elke transaksie aangeteken, selfde soos amunisie. Vanessa Gouws: Haat die goed! Niemand wat dit skiet hou by die reëls nie! Het met die selfde pro-
bleme in SA gesit. Mense het nog tot die 3de die goed geskiet. Wens die goed kan van die mark af! Elize Chris de Wit: Shame!
Mark van Aardt: Thank you to all the dedicated people at the SPCA - without you the needless suffering of our animal friends by some inconsiderate barbaric
humans would be intolerable! My sincere condolenses to those who lost their animal loved ones so needlessly.

A swing gate erected on a game farm. Swing gates have been hailed as a great tool to prevent the slaying of predators which enters game farms.
Swing Gate a Solution The Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) is advocating for the use of swing gates in efforts to halt the killings of predators such as cheetahs. The swing gates will come in handy in Namibia and the rest of Southern Africa, where reports of game ranchers removing and killing higher numbers of cheetahs than other predators are high. Swing gates are similar in concept to a residential pet door. They enable burrowing animals such as warthog and aardvark to enter farms through a hinged flap in the fence line. At the same time, the swing gates eliminates the burrowing species’ need to dig passageways under the fence that can potentially allow valua-
ble animals to escape and large carnivores such as cheetahs and leopards to enter. According to a media statement issued by the CCF on Wednesday, its founder and Executive Director, Dr Laurie Marker said it is important to look at how the concept of swing gates can be optimised for maximum benefit with commercial game farm operations. The study conducted earlier by the organisation concluded that the number of holes dug by burrowing animals under game fences decreases
over time when swing gates are easily accessible and ideally placed. “Ironically, the study’s authors also concluded that while burrowing animals have learnt to use these gates, large carnivores are fooled into thinking that the fence lines are completely intact,” she stated. To discourage digging and to reduce costs associated with fence repair, the study recommends extra swing gates be installed in high disturbance areas, such as where the fence line is positioned near water points.

Brian Finch - better and better Bernabé Blaauw
Veteran country rock troubadour, Brian Finch, showed that his passion for music is as strong as ever and that age does not matter; when you’re good, you’re good. He introduced his latest album to his fans at the coast recently when he performed at the popular waterhole, Sarah se Gat, in Walvis Bay. He was backed up by two well-known Namibian musicians, Paul “Chix” Herbst on bass guitar and his son, Kevin, on lead guitar. The reaction of the audience after each song was proof that he definitely still
delivers the goods. Chix also played the bass guitar on the album. His album, Living for yesterday, was dedicated to his friend and fellow musician, Kenny Henson, who passed away a few years ago. He was pleasantly surprised to hear that this reporter still has a record, better known as an LP, of one of their albums from yesteryear. All songs on the new al-
bum were composed by Brian, except for the track Silent Water, which was done by Ramsay Mackay, and was recorded at the Peace of Eden studio in Knysna, South Africa. Brian (67) is living in the Karoo town Prince Albert, South Africa, and is described by some as a national treasure. After 13 albums he is indeed a valuable asset to the South African music industry.
He says, “I have been writing over the past couple of years, in between touring and performing at many gigs. One needs new material and I love coming up with new songs, it is what my life is all about. Being able to share special times with all my fans, gives me great satisfaction. I take it seriously throughout my career, it hasn’t been a walk in the park.
The moods change, the crowd changes, the venue’s are less, and the industry is vast, from digital downloading, to live video’s, keeping up with the changes in the industry. I can only say that I enjoy what I do, and have no regrets choosing a career where I have been blessed. Thank you to my family, my friends and fans. You are all very special in my life!”

ART EXHIBITIONS
Julian Jurgen Jod (23) is a local ‘house music’ artist who recently moved back to Walvis Bay from South Africa. He was born and raised in Walvis Bay. According to him he started with Hip Hop music in 2007 alongside other artists, namely Big Sah and Cardo FB. They formed a joint group called TGR, meaning ‘the greatest rappers’, under the record label Mobb Side
Records (MSR). The group played together for two years. “In 2009 we split up, but my love for music did not end. It only grew stronger. Cardo FB and I worked on massive tracks which made it possible for us to be seen on television,” he said. According to him he
moved to Windhoek in 2011 where he worked with major artists and producers such as Lazpak on Videos and Elvo, Maj beats where he put his producing skills to work on tracks for artists like Swart Baster, Fresh Family, Adora and Exit. “My love for house music grew and I now
work under the record label of True Images and Sounds, which I own and have recently signed a group called Fellam-Pelaz, whose genre is also house music. My goals are to expand the label and complete my studies in South Africa, open an electrical company, and to
finish my house album, featuring other artists. The date of the launch will still be decided by management,” he said. His message to younger artists is “put your dreams to work and never give up. What does not kill you makes you stronger.”

SFC Host Successful Xmas Cup & 5-a-side! Leandrea Louw
The Swakopmund Football Club (SFC) hosted their annual Christmas Cup during the weekend of 26 to 29 December. A total of 12 Teams participated in the Social Division and five teams participated in the League Division. Amatuks was crowned this year as the winner of the Christmas Cup after defeating the defending champions, All Stars United, with a score of 2-0. The Social Division was split into Spain and Amutuks celebrating. Social and League winners of the Christmas Cup three groups. From these groups only the eight best teams progressed into the play-offs. One team, the TLC Football Club from Otjiwarongo was disqualified from the Social Division as they used certain Premier League players to strengthen their side. This is strictly prohibited by the tournament rules and hence they, after having been found guilty, have been All the winners. SFC on the left (League winners) - Ninja Schnecken in the middle disqualified and their tournament deposit
(Ladies winners) - Spain on the right (Social Cup winners)
Walvisbaai Rugby klub reg vir aksie Madelaine Laubscher
Volgens Mr André Visser van die Walvisbaai Rugbyklub, het die span ‘n baie suksesvolle raak-rugby (touch-rugby) dag op Hentiesbaai gehad. Hy bedank alle borge asook ieder en elk wat gehelp het om ‘n sukses van die dag te maak. “Daar is groot planne vir dié jaar en ons wil
graag vir Mr Nico van der Westhuizen verwelkom as ons nuwe afrigter vir 2015. Oefentye sal amptelik Maandag 12 Januarie begin by die Jan
Wilken Stadion en ons nooi alle spelers asook oud-rugbyspelers om by ons aan te sluit en ‘n sukses van 2015 te maak. Sien julle daar,” het hy gesê.

forfeited. The League Division was played on a round robin basis with the top 4 teams progressing into the play-offs. The only team to forfeit their deposit were the Blue Boys FC due to a late turn-up for a game. After 2 nail-biting Semi-Finals, which both had to be decided in penalty shoot-outs, it was Amatuks vs All Stars United. At the end Amatuks arose victorious. “This year, we are looking into also offering a “35 & older” division in the form of a 7-a-side. Hopefully, we can enjoy the same support that we receive in the other divisions and make this a reality. To all the teams and players that took part a heartfelt “Thank you” and make sure to be on the look-out for our invitations by
October 2015,” Mr Karl-Heinz Schulte, organiser of the tournament said. Earlier in December, SFC also hosted a very successful 5-a-side tournament over the weekend of 12 to 14 December. Swakop Young Stars defeated Damara Wambo Alles (DWA) 5-1 in the final of the League Cup and was crowned the winner of the 5-a-side tournament. Defending champions Ninja Schnecken FC defeated Buschhexen FC 9-1 in the final of the women’s section and retained the cup for a second time. Spain FC defeated Chomas FC 1-0 and pocketed the Social Cup. Overall 23 teams signed up for the 2-day tournament as well as 3 Ladies teams. The 23 Teams were split into 4 Groups and then played on
a Round Robin basis. The 1st placed teams in each group then went into the “League” Play-offs. The 2nd & 3rd placed teams went into the “Social – Cup” playoffs and the 4th & 5th placed teams went into the “Social – Shield” playoffs. “Overall, the tournament went very good little disciplinary action necessary and the weather also played along nicely”. “I would also like to express my gratitude towards our sponsors for making it possible for us to host such a tournament in which the “non-professional” player can enjoy some football amongst friends. Also to all the helpers, referees, medics and the like, without them we would not be able to host both tournaments,” Schulte said.
