People of Namibia 🇳🇦
Our country has close to 80 Parastatals (State Owned Entities) that COLLECTIVELY employ more than 20 000 employees. The TOTAL ASSET value is estimated to be at N$ 120 Billion. The LIABILITIES are at N$ 60 billion while the NET ASSET VALUE is also estimated at N$ 60 billion. But here is an EMBARRASSING TRUTH and REALITY. For 36 years of FLAG INDEPENDENCE, the Pension for all these 80 Parastatals and more than 20 000 employees are held by/with FOREIGN PENSION Funds and Companies. THIS money is used to Sponsor and Develop other countries and the economies of the select few. REMEMBER that the total Value of the Pension Industry is at N$ 300 Billion of which N$ 185 Billion is GIPF. We need to CORRECT this 36 Years FAILURE. We will MEET, ENGAGE, ADVISE and CONVINCE the Government to establish PUBLIC ENTITIES PENSION FUND (PEPEF). All 80 Parastatals WILL MOVE their Pension to this fund, PEPEF. As a Country, the plan is to now have another vehicle, like GIPF, that can fund Our country’s economic development agenda. We should move from SLOGANS to REAL Interventions, RADICAL INTERVENTIONS for the development of our Country and its People. There are some GOOD PEOPLE in Government who will LISTEN and I know we can do it TOGETHER. AFRICA is our BEGINNING and AFRICA is our END! ❤️🙌🏿💪🏿
I'm unconcerned how this tweet will make you feel by the time you finish reading it.
I hope young people copy one example from Job other than just studying further. If you just continue collecting qualifications blindly, you'll end up with many qualifications you can't use at once because they don't compliment each other, looking like a mad man who goes from one dustbin to another, collecting all sorts of cana and plastics just to carry.
Job studied one course up to PHD level, then added a complementary PGD for a lawmaker that he is.
We have people in this country with hundreds of qualifications: 3 Honours, 2 Masters, a PHD, 3 PGD, 5 certificates, all in 6 different fields. That's not education but an academically lost person.
The concept of making things work with few resources is constant everywhere - resourcefulness. If you aren't useful with a few qualifications, you won't be useful with many. It's a sign you are not resourceful and haven't figured out your purpose.
We have been fooled to believe those with the most qualifications are the most intelligent. That's a lie. Many are not convinced they're intelligent enough so they study to hide that shallowness behind qualifications.
As we study further, let's choose complimentary qualifications/fields. After all, qualifications in 1 or 2 fields never just cover 1 or 2 fields. They overlap with many other fields. You'd always find an Accounting module in non-Accounting programmes, or a Commercial Law or Economics course in other programmes.
If you need to study every course to understand everything, you're that mad man, and you'd realize many with qualification poitjies can't do much productive with them; even just to write a book.
NB: The most useful people in this country have 1 or 2-field qualifications, complimented maybe by a people/project/business (etc.) management qualification.
The process of making Lip-Channels is fascinating.
We are proud to have started supplying Lip-Channels to two of Namibia’s biggest hardware stores. 🥵 @RoofTech_Nam
Yesterday I made an unplanned visit to a construction site in Kavango West Region. The contractor there informed me they were promised payment three weeks ago and are still waiting. Consequently, they cannot complete the project due to a lack of materials. I have communicated this to the line ministry and it will be addressed from today.
Understandably, we have been complaining about contractors but in this particular case the problem is not theirs; it is ours as government officials. When contractors deliver on their end we should not unnecessarily delay their payments. This might be one site but I have heard from line Ministries that the issue is widespread. We are addressing this matter earnestly.
Dear contractors especially SMEs, our commitment is to ensure seamless service delivery throughout the country and we appreciate your cooperation in achieving this.
Blessed day ahead dear Comrades and Friends.
The problem is that you want to compare us with people who are stealing and doing rituals. We are okay with our salaries, we pay our bills well, put food on our tables and drive cars we can afford. We only broke for your unrealistic expectations!
Thank you The Sun for highlighting our journey, showcasing how @RoofTech_Nam and @CityLink_buses are contributing to Namibia’s industrial growth and connectivity. 🎉👏🏾
🎉Congratulations to @RoofTech_Nam to be among Namibian Manufacturers spearheading these exports
The fact that locally manufactured sinc are now being exported is positive signal for the country industrial development
We can gradually reduce dependence on imports Cc @ngurare
It was an inspirational moment today to welcome 1yr TVET students from Hero Vocational Center, who came to witness what we do.
Our MD, Mr. Haikali pledged to support TVET students through scholarships and on-job training to scale up local skills.

DBN has quietly killed the hope of many young innovators in Namibia.
Inexperienced business analysts reject viable ideas they don’t like or understand, while projects they prioritize to fund fail to repay.
That’s definitely not risk management. Business study 101
