Omaruru Cleanup in fullswing
By| Dirck Kuzatjike

Diverse stakeholders in Omaruru are committed to make the National Clean up Campaign a success by committing resources, time and energy to the cause.

Yesterday the Lucius S. Mahoto Correctional Training College and the Omaruru Correctional Facility clean up around 7de Laan, 5Rand and Shackdwellers as they will be committed to an event in Mariental. 20 inmates from the Omaruru Correctional Facility and learners from Omaruru Primary School are currently cleaning parts of Omaruru town, while other schools will be expected to join in tomorrow and Friday.

On the designated clean up day, May 25 the Omaruru Municipality as the facilitator of the campaign is calling all residents to gather at 08H00 at Mabokke Stadium were the Mayor Hendrina Gebhardt will officially welcome everyone before the clean up. The cleanup is expected to conclude at 12h45 with a gathering at Ozondje Municipal offices.

"This should be a collective effort from all of us as a community" Gebhadt said during a meeting of stakeholders this morning "everyone should come out and do their part"

Environmental Health Officer Jesaja Andreas told the gathering that Ozondje, especially Hakahana will receive concentrated effort during this clean up as its one of the most dirtiest areas. According to Andreas this will help the municipality to cope with future cleanups in the area.

Among the stakeholders who have indicated support to the clean up are> Lewis Store (5 workers and a bakkie), Omaruru Constituency Office (1x Bakkie), Hospital (Bakkie), FNB (Refuse bags and Drinks), Standard Bank (educational posters, refuse bags, gloves and Gazebos), NAMPOL (10 officers and a bakkie), NAMCOL (bakkie), Erongo Drums (bakkie, Trailer, bags), Shackdwellers and Hospital will clean their immediate surroundings while Ubasen Primary and Paheye Primary will spearhead the bulk of the hands as always.

The clean up is being held nationwide after a call by statehouse to dedicate 25 May to cleaning.

Omaruru Municipality sells prime
business erf to two buyers

A business erf in Ozondje initially sold by Omaruru municipality to a Thomas Kamati a businessman specializing in welding in 2001 was sold to another Josef Sheefeni another businessman. Omaruru Municipality is currently avoiding answering to queries by Kamati regarding the land.
Kamati has since opened a case with the Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) however due to pending documents from Municipality the investigations has been slowed.
“The municipal staff and ceo are sending me from pillar to post every day, but I need council resolutions through which council sold the land to another person” Kamati told Savanna Newspaper “Council did not even approached me before selling the land, it’s best if they give me another land at the same value as the one they sold under my nose”.
“Earlier I was shown my payment record on the municipal system but today It seem all proof has been deleted’ Kamati said “I have the approval documents they should provide me with documents breaking that commitment”
Savanna Newspaper has seen municipal papers approving the sale of the prime land in April 2001, at N$3626.00.
Sheefeni a local property developer is about to complete construction of flats on the disputed land. Efforts to get answers from either the municipal ceo Alfons Tjitombo and Corporate Affairs manager Roswith Kaura proof futile.
