Founding Father of the Namibian Nation Dr Sam Nujoma last Thursday said if Namibia wants to become a highly developed country, more money must be invested in education. Speaking at the 5th anniversary of Team Namibia and the launch of the second Team Namibia directory at a local hotel in the capital, Nujoma stressed that education is very important and that oncentration on maths and science over the next 15 years would help eliminate poverty. With his firm belief in agriculture, Nujoma said more must be done to obtain grazing on farms.“
We must do more on debushing in order to create space for grazing. Farmers can raise zdditional cattle and small stock for slaughtering to enable the country to export to SADC and the outside world. Agriculture is the backbone of any country and its economy,” he said. He suggested to Team Namibia and its member companies to each set aside at least N$20 000 per annum to be utilised towards education.“We must change our attitude. It is just a question to know what we have and to concentrate on how to explore it,” the latest holder of a degree in geology from the University of Namibia said. Mentioning the many possibilities and opportunities, Dr Nujoma said the Benguela Current and the Atlantic Ocean are full of highly prized fish species such as alfonsino and orange roughy that need to be explored and harvested. Also, the founding president said the country is blessed with high-grade uranium deposits and it can be utilised in the processing of the generation of electricity in a desalinating plant where seawater can be purified and used to green the desert. He said the support of Team Namibia and its members will have a direct impact on the Namibian economy, translating into the safeguarding of Namibian jobs and increasing job opportunities for Namibians. Nujoma further went on to say that Team Namibia, of whom he is the patron, ensures that “naturally Namibian products” become consumers’ first choice when purchase decisions are made.
