Biggest Cocaine Bust in Namibian History

General of Police calls for a stiff sentence for Noble and Azahr

The Inspector-General of the Namibian Police, LieutenantGeneral Sebastian Ndeitunga, calls upon on the judiciary to seek a stiff prison sentence for Grant Noble (36) and Dinath Azahr (62) who was arrested last month following a drug bust in the port of Walvis Bay involving 412kg of cocaine.

General Ndeitunga, accompanied by other senior police officials, visited Walvis Bay yesterday to convey his personal appreciation to officials from several Government departments for this astronomic drug arrest.

At a function at a local hotel the General for the first time shed more light on the operation of 15 June in the port of Walvis Bay where a shipping container was intercepted in which 412kg of cocaine valued at a whopping N$206 million was stashed.

The Namibian authorities was tipped off about the consignment of cocaine destined for Wa l v i s B a y i n March this year. By April the Namibian Police, Customs and Excise and Namport Port Security Services were ready to react.

On 9 June the container was discharged from the container ship Amanda in the port of Walvis Bay. A meticulously planned period followed during which the container was placed under surveillance and monitored by the Police, Customs and Namport Security.

A few days later Noble and Azahr arrived to clear and remove the container from Namport’s premises. The container was moved to the Namibian Police’s port police station where the container was opened. A sniffer dog soon discovered the cocaine hidden in boxes that was marked as photocopy paper.

In fact, there were ten pallets of copy paper in the container and one of the pallets had the hidden stashes of cocaine on it.

After samples were gathered and sent to a forensic laboratory.

The tests confirmed

the substance to be cocaine powder.

Noble and Azahr were arrested and already made a first appearance in the Walvis Bay magistrates court on charges relating to cocaine trafficking.

“The most difficult part now lies ahead”, General Ndeitunga told members of the Police, Customs and Namport who were at the function yesterday.

Adding the difficult part lies in the technical issues to conduct a proper investigation and to present evidence which would lead to a prosecution.

General Ndeitunga also confirmed the investigation is still ongoing, as there are other individuals who are implicated in this huge cocaine bust, but who are in hiding.

“I don’t want to interfere or prescribe to our country’s courts, but I call upon the judiciary to pass a very stiff sentence”, Lt-General Ndeitunga said.

Namport serious about protecting Namibia’s borders The Namibia Ports Authority (Namport) is developing a policy to put structure in place to combat terrorism. This was confirmed yesterday by the Chief Executive Officer of Namport, Mr Bisey Uirab.

Mr Uirab addressed officials of the Namibian Police, Customs and Port Security Services during an occasion to thank them for their efforts which led to Namibia’s biggest cocaine bust in its history in the port of Walvis Bay on 15 June this year.

Uirab said Namport as the custodian of Namibian ports understands the obligation to do its part in keeping the country’s borders safe. The port of Walvis Bay is also a key component of several transport corridors to neighbouring countries which can play a vital role in the proliferation of terrorism if not controlled properly. Hence the need to develop a policy which can serve as the basis to put systems and structures in place to proactively engage the rise of terrorism in Southern Africa.

Calls for the acquisition and training of sniffer dogs in the fight against drug trafficking Namport’s Chief Executive Officer Mr. Bisey Uirab yesterday called upon the Namibian authorities to step up efforts to acquire and train police sniffer dogs.

That is after the successful cocaine bust in the the Namibian Police, Customs and Excise and port of Walvis Bay on 15 June this year in which Namport Security Services who worked relenta police sniffer dog within minutes located lessly since March this year to keep the con412kg of cocaine, hidden in a cargo container tainer under surveillance and which ultimately resulted in the arrest of two people who came to that originated from Brazil.

Rescued penguin needs transport Eileen van der Schyff

The penguin was under nourished and covered in oil. After a good cleaning and getting her strength back, Daisy the penguin's rehabilitation has come to an end and she is now ready to be released into the sea again. She needs to be transported to Lüderitz for that next big step in her life.

Mr Booman and Dr Dantu, who has a halfway house for penguins in Swakopmund, rescued Daisy at Tiger Reef on 10 June this year. The penguin was under nourished and covered in oil. After a good cleaning to get rid of all the oil on her body and good nourishment consisting of good fish, she gained back her strength and is ready to be set free.

Maike Lohmann from Hansa Hotel Reservations has been visiting Daisy regularly and donated fish for her to enjoy. “We are now urgently looking for transport, either by air or by road for Daisy to Lüderitz where she will be reintroduced into the wild.” Lohmann explained to the namib times yesterday.

Daisy is an African Penguin, also known as a Jack Ass Penguin, because of the

donkey-like noise they make.

Maike Lohmann can be contacted at reservations, Hansa Hotel: Tel: +264 64 414200, should you be able to play a part in the releasing of Daisy.

“Namibia’s borders are porous - gangs use modern communication devices”

The Inspector-General of the Namibian Police Lt.-General Sebastian Ndeitunga yesterday in Walvis Bay said Namibia’s borders to all neighbouring countries remain porous. This means there are vast areas people can cross the borders into the country on foot and even by vehicle. Organised crime gangs use these porous borders to smuggle drugs. These gangs also use normal communication technology like cell phones to coordinate their cross border smuggling activities.

Lt.-General Ndeitunga urged all the relevant Namibian authorities to work together to fight cross border smuggling activities and for the authorities to pursue the acquisition of enhanced technology to stay ahead of the techniques applied by these criminal gangs.

Similar cocaine bust made in port of Santos in Brazil where the Namibian consignment of cocaine originated from.........

The shipment of the 412kg of cocaine destined for Namibia originated in the port of Santos in Brazil. Brazil is the hub for cocaine trafficking to Europe, West Africa and South Africa. Cocaine is produced in neighboring Colombia, Bolivia and Peru and smuggled by small planes, trucks and boats via the vast Amazon river system to Brazil.

Cargo ships seem to be the preferred platform to smuggle cocaine to Europe.

This is clear from the biggest cocaine bust in the port of Santos’ history which took place on 23 March this year. A total of 2 052 kilograms of cocaine were seized at the Guaruja wharf of the port of Santos. The drugs were concealed in three containers hidden among legally declared shipments of coffee, sugar and soy, according to the Brazilian media. The containers were to be loaded on the cargo ship Cap San Marco, destined for Hamburg in Germany, Le Havre in France and Algeeiras in Spain.

The shipment of cocaine discovered in Walvis Bay which originated from Santos incidentally also became Namibia’s biggest cocaine bust in history.

Cocaine smuggled to West Africa and South Africa from Brazil are mostly smuggled via airlines into Europe, according to a 2017 report on international drug trafficking by the US Department of State.

The cargo ship Amanda D which discharged the container stashed with cocaine to Walvis Bay. Inspector-General Sebastian Ndeitunga yesterday said should the container with drugs were confiscated aboard the ship, the ship owners would have risked the vessel be confiscated and made the property of the Namibian Government under the Namibian Prevention of Organised Crime Act (POCA).

Cocaine powder among top 4 smuggled Statistics show that cannabis, Mandrax, cocaine powder and the drug Ecstacy are the most commonly smuggled drugs in Namibia. Although Namibia was for many years known mainly as a transit-country for drugs, the use of these drugs by Namibians are on the increase and is becoming a major concern.

During the period January 2017 to June 2018, a total of 35 suspects were arrested at border posts for drug smuggling. The total value of the drugs confiscated was set at N$215 million.

The majority of those arrested were Namibians, South Africans, Angolans, Swaziland nationals, Zambians and Malawians, according to the Inspector-General of the Namibian Police, Lt.-Gen Sebastian Ndeitunga. General Ndeitunga provided the above information yesterday at a function in Walvis Bay where officials of Nampol, Customs and Excise and Namport Security Services were com-mended for their action which led to the discovery of 412kg of cocaine in a shipping container in the port of Walvis Bay on 15 June this year. Two people were arrested and more arrests are expected, according to Lt.-Gen Ndeitunga.

DRC community access to ICT literacy Sharlien Tjambari

The Ministry of Information and Communication Technology (MICT) in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture launched the DRC informal settlement ICT Project on Friday, 29 June in Swakopmund.

Council Agenda goes electronic Sharlien Tjambari

The Swakopmund Council will no longer have a hard copy Council Agenda at the council meetings as usual because they are trying to reduce production costs and find a way of cutting its budget.

This was announced at the council meeting last week Thursday, 28 June.

The Mayor of Swakopmund, Pauline Nashilundo announced that the council will soon be distributing the Council Agenda electronically and that would tremendously cut production costs. The implementations of the paperless Agenda will be executed in the following manner: the Agenda will be distributed electronically to councillors and staff members, the Agenda for the public will be made available after each meeting on the Facebook page of the council and Swakopmund Municipal website, the public will be provided with the index and a document link to download the document during the meeting. “Of course, it is expected that there might be teething problems in the initial stages, however, all shortcomings will be addressed speedily”, said Nashilundo.

The project aims to introduce basic computer skills to the community of DRC and selected adult learners. According to the Director of Education in Erongo region John /Awaseb, the use of ICT has the potential to enhance quality of life as it will aid beneficiaries to received information, seeks jobs online and find better paying jobs as they would be competent in computer skills. “The new information technologies are bound to separate the haves and the haves not and the DRC ICT project serves to bridge this digital divide”.

The Mayor of Swakopmund Pauline Nashilundo said, getting a proper education is very important, it develops people's personalities and promotes the feeling of physical, mental and social well-being by providing a better life.

She further said: “these people will be able to keep up with the development of technologies.

Community technology centres are good investments because these centres address both resource and programmatic needs and it provides communities with access to computer equipment, software and the internet”.

Uaripi Katjiukua, an Information Officer at the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology stated that there are a few challenges they are faced with this project. They have

limited resources, only four computers available for the whole DRC settlement. Another challenge will be having inspired and committed members who will be able and willing to sit for a duration of three months to complete the course.

Katjiukua also informed the community that the theoretical part of the course will be taking place at Hanganeni Primary school while the theoretical part will be at the information centre at the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology's regional office.

During the three months the community will be introduced to windows, hardware, software, internet banking, online security, etc.

The DRC informal settlement ICT project is not based in the DRC, it is taking place in the MICT regional office and it is for the people of DRC. According to /Awaseb the initiation will go a long way in providing Lifelong Learning that will include other informal settlements within the Erongo region in the future. Adult illiteracy could be a contributing factor in social ills poverty, HIV/AIDS, Domestic violence and child abuse in informal settlements.

It is imperative to empower and emancipate the community with basic skills in ICT.

Unusual cargo item exported through the port of Walvis Bay

This statue of a rhino, carved out of an eight tons block of marble from the Karibib district, was exported from Namibia to Austria through the port of Walvis Bay last week. The statue was carved by the French sculptor GÊ Pellini at the Franco Namibian Cultural Centre and was originally meant to be auctioned off to raise funds for the Namibia Professional Hunters Association’s project Hunters United Against Poaching Trust (HUAP Trust). The auction saw no successful bids for the life size statue, but an Austrian art collector seized the opportunity and purchased the statue for N$865 000 (30 000 Euros). The collector wishes to remain anonymous.

The statue was discharged in the port of Hamburg in Germany and is currently transported to its new permanent home in Austria. (On the picture: the statue on display in Windhoek)

Swakopmund SME Mini Expo launched

Sharlien Tjambari

On Friday, 29 June a media launch for the first ever Swakopmund SME (Small, Medium Enterprises) Mini Expo 2018 took place in the Infinity Lounge in Swakopmund. The purpose of the expo is to empower SME's in Namibia.

The Swakopmund SME Mini Expo will take place from 27-29 September at the Multipurpose centre and it caters specifically small and medium enterprises who manufacture, design or has created a Namibian Product or has invested their talents in their own diverse service industry.

Nangula Nashandi, the young mind behind this mini expo said that there will be many expos taking place in Namibia during the year, but unfortunately they cater for the mass corporate and private companies/organisations that have massive budgets.

“Our expo is crucial and only focuses on the SME's that are continuously contributing to the economy and aren't seen in the limelight”, Nashandi further said.

In a speech read on his behalf by his Special Advisor Mrs Adelheid Kandjala, the Governor of Erongo region Mr Cleophas Mutjavikua said: “Erongo region is a region with so many resources and opportunities, a region of growth and development and this mini expo is evident that our SME is also a driving force and vehicle towards the growth of the economy”.

According to Mutjavikua, the SME Mini Expo will be a platform for many business owners to view the potential Namibians have, and create

possible business relationships or even a great product/ service for Namibia. The governor calls upon SME's in Swakopmund to make use of this opportunity, an opportunity towards possible future partnerships and for SME's to collectively upgrade their businesses.

An estimate of 150 stalls is expected to register at a minimum charge of N$500 only. The expo is open to the public at no charge.

All proceeds from the

expo will be used to organise an annual expo as a token of giving back to the community.

There will also be a fundraising gala dinner on 21 August this year.

Regis-tration for stalls have already started and will be closed on 21 August.

All SME's registered with the Ministry of Trade and Industry are advised to register for the expo in order to show their products to the rest of the world.

N$2 million budget for CCTV cameras Walvis Bay Mayor Clr Alderman Immanuel Wilfried confirmed this week the Walvis Bay municipality is prepared to contribute to the fight against crime by providing a capital budget for the acquisition of security cameras at strategic positions across the harbour town.

Clr Wilfried called upon residents, though not to sit idle and wait for projects like these to be proactive in the fight against crime. He gave local neighbourhood watches and a vigilance to report suspicious or criminal activities as examples how the public can assist. “It is high-time for our communities to become bolder than the criminals by regenerating neighbourhood watch groups and other methods to get rid of criminals. Let us look out for one another and report any suspicious behaviour to the law-enforcement agencies. As Council, we also hope to contribute to fight crime through the provision of CCTV-cameras in strategic places”, Clr Wilfried stated in his statement during the Ordinary Monthly Council Meeting on Tuesday night.

Also on Wednesday night the Chairperson of the Management Committee of the Walvis Bay town council, Clr Samson Nghilumbwa, in his Budget Speech confirmed a portion of council's N$41 million budget for community and social projects will be spent towards the installation of CCTV cameras across Walvis Bay to boost the fight against crime. An official after the meeting said the budget for cameras would be around N$2 million. The time frame for the implementation of the project could, however, not be confirmed.

Denise Van Bergen Wouldn't it be more cost effective to simply increase in street patrols by the local police force?

Sterjos Stergiadis I think one needs both. Cameras will be useless to capture a crime and nothing will happen to the criminals. Need people on the street.

Michael Stabler Put wipers on all cams for winter season lol.

Hannelie Schoonbee When the cameras are monitored from a single control room

and any suspicious activities or persons is identified and police and NWW informed.... can make a big difference. Manpower on the ground is simply not enough.... people does not want to get invol.

Benhard Mbongora Naweseb No, we want to sit and stamp papers.

Chao-lin Ma Cameras gonna be stolen first.

Nazeema Brenner Surveilance cameras is evidence in court.

Water rates increase by 11 %, Property rates to increase by 10% Property owners in Walvis Bay can expect a property rates and taxes increase of 10 % on the value of their land and a further 10 % on improvements [buildings] for the 2018/19 financial year. In addition, consumers will also pay 11 % more for water and related services. These announcements were made on Tuesday at the tabling of the Municipality of Walvis Bay's Budget for the new financial year.

According to the Chairperson of Council's management committee, Clr Samson Nghilumbwa, in his budget speech, the local authority of Walvis Bay expects to generate a revenue of N$491 million in the 2018/19 financial year. The anticipated expenditure is set at N$491,5 million, therefore a revenue shortfall of N$500 000.

“About 78 % of the total estimated revenues are obtained from water and related services, property rates and taxes, refuse removal rates as well as sewer service rates”, explained Clr Nghilumbwa. Hence the proposed increase of 11% in water supply and related services rates, 10 % on site values and 10% on improvement values of sites. The budget awaits final endorsement from the Minister of Urban and Rural Development.

A Lesson from the plight of the dismissed fishermen There is a saying in Oshiwambo, “Ombuku yokwena kumwe kayishi dhigu kudhipaga.” Translated in English, it simply means, “it is easy to kill a mouse with only one burrow.”

The difficult situation in which some of the dismissed fishermen find themselves in, presents a lesson worth maximum attention from those fishermen who still hold their jobs. I am aware of the fact that he who has bread to eat does not appreciate the severity of the famine, BUT HELLO BROTHERS: PAY ATTENTION, “he who hearken not by mere words will hearken by the sight of his own blood.” (Silozi proverb).

Losing a job and income does not only come as a result of participating in an illegal strike, but you can also find yourself in the street as a result of retrenchment, the company closure or as a result of your inability to do your work satisfactorily. So, we must not see the dismissed fishermen as fools who were toying with their bread. Their aims which were amongst others, to improve their working conditions and to be fairly remunerated were good, though the course of action they took to achieve them was “illegal”. Nevertheless, losing an income is not as simple as it sounds.

Making the situation even worse is that it is not easy to find another job quickly after dismissal and the majority of the dismissed fishermen are unemployable elsewhere given their lack of transferable skills.

There is nothing as painful as losing your house, a car or furniture as a result of your inability to pay your monthly dues.

There is nothing as painful as being chased by the landlord from

your rented flat or ghetto you have been calling home for years as a result of failing to pay rent.

What is so painful as sending away your spouse and children to the village because you cannot afford to keep them in town? How painful is it to be dumped by your girlfriend and seeing her in another man's hand because of your financial predicaments?

I am sure none of you want to go through this pain and humiliation, but these things happened to some of your dismissed fellows.

Seeing that it is not good to lose almost everything you have worked for, the question now here is, how should you avoid such a painful experience as a fisherman?

Prevention is always better than cure, they say.

Start now investing in your capacity! What do I mean by this, you may rightly ask? It is said that “knowledge is power and power is the ability to do the work. No man can act beyond the limit of his knowledge.”

Hence; it is very much significant to invest in your abilities to do the work. With knowledge and skills, one is able to produce goods or services for others at a profit or to sell his labour to an employer. I know that the majority of you did not go beyond grade 10 in school, but friends, you can still attend some training courses to gain some skills and enhance your employability or become an entrepreneur when you lose your job.

Stop being a mouse of one burrow.

You can do this during your annual leave or when the vessel goes for repair. Those in the hake industry can take advantage of October month when the season closes. I understand some of you don't even have simple documents such as a driving licence, a document that can get you a quick job such as a taxi driver, just to enable you to buy food and pay rent. Job hunting these days is as tough as

hunting a lion. Unless you are the biblical Samson resurrected, one cannot kill a lion with bare hands. You must be armed with an assault rifle and ammunitions, and in the case of job hunting, you must be equipped with s p ecial s k ills an d knowledge, not just with a passport and a Seamen Record Book.

Equally important in this regard is investing in income generating means while you are working. Stop wasting your hard earned money on expensive electronic gadgets which you rarely use and only to sell them at a sacrifice when you lose your job.

There is also no dignity in living in an expensive flat behind someone's house just to impress others. Better build yourself a modern house in the village if you cannot afford one in town, you can do it.

Last but not least, develop the habit of reading. It can even be fiction books in your mother tongue, the boredom at sea makes it possible to read.

As you read, you develop a different view of life, improve your reasoning ability and make informed decisions.

In conclusion, dear brothers, be that mouse with multiple burrows so that you do not become a laughing stock when dismissed. As for the dismissed fishermen wandering in the streets of Lüderitz and Walvis Bay, hear this: The Lord, God of hosts has declared that “you shall not be tested beyond what you can bear.”

The situation you find yourself today can very well be a blessing in disguise. Keep looking for other opportunities in life, don't give up!

Severinus Kuutondokwa was a Seafarer for 8years. He understands what it means to work at sea.

SFC Vikings 2018 Champions

Lions to Brazil Media Release

After travelling a total of 4 200 kilometres around the country, the Neymar Jr's Five soccer tournament organisers hosted the National Finals at UN Plaza in Windhoek over the weekend.

Teams from the central, northern and coastal areas of the country battled it out on a fast paced concrete court. Every match was intense as a once in a lifetime experience of playing in Brazil at the World Finals on Saturday, 21 July 2018 was at stake – After going through intense group stages of the top sixteen teams, the Oshakati based team Lions, were eventually crowned the National Champions.

In the final match, Lions were up against the fan favourites; Windhoek based, Bethlehem United.

Both teams cruised to the finals. Bethlehem United started off strong and almost outplayed the Lions.

The Windhoek team came close to scoring on multiple occasions, but it was not their day.

Lions on the other hand kept their composure and remained focussed until the last minute. The final match resulted in a draw of 0-0. As a result, the one-on-one rule had to be implemented to break the tie and decide which team will represent Namibia. Lions' captain Pieter Hailombe netted the crucial goal that will now take his team to Brazil. “This will be the first time for us to fly out of Namibia. We worked hard for this and it is a dream come true. Representing our country doing what we love, is the best thing ever. We look forward to the experience.

Thank you Red Bull, Bank Windhoek and all the

other sponsors for making this possible,” said Hailombe.

Lions' team members are: 1. Pieter FillemonHailombe (26) 2. Johannes Kashiwapala David (22) 3. Onesmus NdinelagoAshipala (22) 4. Erastus Kulula (21) 5. Josua Inga Mekela Jesus David (20) 6. Absalom NghiiyelekwaHatutale (20) 7. France TangeniShivute (26) Bank Windhoek's Chief Financial Officer, James Chapman, who witnessed the finals, said: “This is a great success story for our country and has been a brilliant tournament since the beginning.

Congratulations Lions go and make us proud in Brazil. As a sponsor we will be there with you throughout the journey.”

Themed 'Outplay Them All', the Neymar Jr's Five is a Red Bull initiative co-sponsored by Bank Windhoek. Snickers, Fresh FM and NBC, are also sponsors of the tournament.

Lions will be the first Namibian team to represent the country at the World Finals. They will have a chance to play against world-renowned and most expensive soccer player, Neymar Junior, who is currently representing Brazil at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. Sixty-four other countries, will aim for the same achievement. For more information, log on to www.neymarjrsfive.com.

This past Saturday the SFC Vikings were crowned the 2018 Champions after beating Oranjemund Rugby Club 27-19 at the Hage Geingob Stadium in Windhoek.

The Vikings had a slow start to the first half as they were still adapting to the thin air in Windhoek. Oranjemund Rugby Club took this opportunity and struck with two tries through electric winger Billy Beukes.

Both tries were converted by the exciting young fly-half Johny Mwenyo to make the score 14-0 for Oranjemund.

The SFC Vikings slowly started to gain momentum in the lead up to halftime, when they scored through lock Ettiene Noeth to make the score 14-5. An injury to winger Marcellino van Rooi saw flanker Clayton Camm shifting to the wing just before the halftime whistle.

In the second half the Vikings came out firing on all cylinders when they started to dominate all the collision battles, scrums, rucks and mauls. The men from Swakopmund were determined to win the cup and never looked like losing momentum, even though referee Oscar Lam-bert reached for his pocket to flash No. 8 Martin Barnard and winger Sean de Klerk with yellow cards.

In the meantime prop Corne Vermeulen scored two tries of which one was converted by fly-half Kyle Wentzel. Wentzel added a penalty to make the score 20-14 in favour of the Vikings.

As the game started to draw to a close, referee Oscar Lambert again reached for the pocket, this time in the form of a red card to fullback Lourens Barnard for dangerous play.

With the full-back leaving the field, Oranjemund winger Billy Beukes again crossed the chalk for his hat trick. Mwenyo missed the conversion which left the score at 20-19.

In the last minute of play the SFC Vikings threw everything they had left at the men from Oranjemund, which resulted in a beautiful try through outside-center Juan Viljoen when he broke the defence line, stepped off the fullback and scored under the uprights. Wentzel converted the try to set the scoreboard at 27-19 before the end whistle.

"We are extremely proud of this young team; they are a couple of ordinary boys from Swakopmund and Walvis Bay that did extraordinary things for their town and for their club throughout this year.

There is a bond between them that words can't describe, it's something that you have to experience. They came out determined to win this cup for the coastal community against all odds and they did just that. These guys will give everything for each other and the emblem on their chest and we are thankful to be a part of that. We are really excited to build on this for the future" said Jaco Barnard.

The Vikings would like to thank QK Konstruksie, Megasave Swakopmund, ORPA Hunting Safaris, Reef Break Realtors and Cars & Guides Swakopmund for their sponsorship throughout the year.

The Vikings will go into the history books as the first club to win the cup in its first year of existence.
