Land conference a sham - AmupandaLand conference a sham - Amupanda
Job Amupanda of the Affirmative Repositioning Movement has reacted strongly against comments made by lands minister Utoni Nujoma on the eNCA news channel yesterday. Nujoma said that government will not give land to the poor. According to Amupanda, Nujoma also said " government particularly has a problem with giving land to the poor from informal settlements and government will only give land to the elite who will contribute to the 'GDP'."
He added that they take "note of the minister's announcement and confirmation that SWAPO compromised and sold out on the land question because they were, in Utoni Nujoma’s own words, 'tired of being in the bush'."
Amupanda continued by accusing government, and in particular the 'Harambee Cabinet' of being anti poor, reminding the nation of now vice-president Nangolo Mbumba's comments in 2014. Mbumba, he said, "displayed the same anti-poor attitude during our 2015 and 2016 land negotiations at State House in the presence of President Hage Geingob who did not call him to order. The anti-poor is a policy of the Harambee Cabinet.
"Utoni Nujoma is an elite with a farm, multiple fishing rights, properties and bank accounts in foreign countries. It should not be expected of him to love the poor. While making these declarations against the poor before an international investigative journalist Nkepile Mabuse, seated on his table are documents for the land conference. Regardless of the documents and much hype about the land conference, it is evident that Nujoma, Mbumba and Geingob already have predetermined outcomes of the land conference. The land conference, therefore, will be nothing but a sham meant to silence the poor who are hated by official government policy."
State House is yet to respond.

Nigeria recovers US$98mln with tax evasion amnesty

Nigeria recovers US$98mln with tax evasion amnestyNigeria recovers US$98mln with tax evasion amnesty Nigeria’s government has recovered around 30 billion naira (US$98 million) from individuals and companies through a tax amnesty scheme, the finance ministry said on Wednesday.

The OPEC member, west Africa’s largest economy, last year emerged from a recession brought on by low oil prices. Crude sales make up two-thirds of national revenue and the government is trying to boost its income from non-oil sources.

The Voluntary Assets and Income Declaration Scheme (VAIDS) gives tax evaders immunity from prosecution, penalty charges and interest if they voluntarily declare their previously undisclosed assets and income.

The finance ministry said the Federal Inland Revenue Service chairman Babatunde Fowler announced details of money recovered while speaking at an event in the capital Abuja.

“Mr Fowler said the federal government had recovered about 30 billion naira from individuals and corporate establishments through the tax amnesty scheme,” it said in a statement.

It said the database of registered taxpayers had increased from 14 million in 2016 to more than 19 million this year. Fowler “expressed optimism that the number would translate into a positive growth in the country’s tax revenue-to-GDP ratio”.

Economists have long criticised the low levels of tax collection in Africa’s most populous country. The tax-to-GDP ratio stands at 6 percent.

The government last year laid out plans to increase it to 15% by 2020. Earlier this month an increase in excise duties on tobacco and alcohol came into effect.

Unam victorious against Rehoboth

Unam victorious against RehobothUnam victorious against RehobothUniversity comes from behind Unam trailed the home team 7-0 after the hosts took the lead 10 minutes into the first half through Xavier van Wyk for their first and only try of the match, with Howard Titus converting the kick to stretch the lead. The University of Namibia (Unam) Rugby Club continued their dominance in the Premier Rugby League after overcoming Rehoboth Rugby Club 31-7 in a hard-fought victory at Rehoboth on Saturday.

It looked like Rehoboth were out to halt the log leaders' winning streak until Simon Haitembu burst through the hosts' defence for a try. Denver Murorua made no mistake and converted his kick to level the scores 7-all.

Soon after the restart, Unam capitalised after poor handling from the Rehoboth players and JC Olivier showed heels to the backline of the home team to cross the line for their second try.

Murorua stepped up again to convert his second kick to stretch the lead to 14-7. The half ended with the same scoreline in favour of the visitors. After the restart, Rehoboth had pushed and camped mostly in the Unam half, but the visitors' defence was on hand to thwart the threat from Rehoboth.

Against the run of play, Titus was sin-binned after he received a yellow card for a high tackle on a Unam player and Unam quickly capitalised from the resulting foul and got their third try through Camlo Martin.

Again, Murorua showed composure and converted his kick to make it 21-7.

Rehoboth stepped up a gear and pressed for a try but Unam sustained the pressure and got a penalty try converted by Bradley Klazen, before Murorua converted another penalty goal to take the final score to 31-7.

Despite the win, Unam coach Johan Diergaardt said after the match the players failed to implement the game plan as discussed.

“It was a stop-start affair where we lacked quality in our game. We failed to implement the tactics to kill off the game as early as possible,” said Diergaardt.

SKW got a consolation goal through Elden Kanguundue late in the second half.

Rashford shines

Rashford shinesRashford shinesEngland cruise past Costa Rica In England's last match before their tournament opener against Tunisia in a few days' time, Manchester United's Rashford was the star of a much-changed side in Leeds. England manager Gareth Southgate admitted Marcus Rashford had given him a difficult decision to make ahead of the World Cup with a stunning strike in a 2-0 friendly victory over Costa Rica on Thursday.

Danny Welbeck was also on target as England extended their unbeaten run to 10 games, stretching back nearly a year.

“What pleased me most is that Marcus Rashford enjoyed his football tonight.

He played with a real swagger,” said Southgate.

Rashford made the most of the absence of England captain Harry Kane as he started up front alongside Jamie Vardy, and showed what he is capable of with a fiercely struck shot from 25 yards that dipped perfectly into the top corner.

“You work on them (goals) in training every day and when one comes up in a game it's a reward,” Rashford told ITV.

Rashford endured a difficult end to the season at United, scoring just four times in 2018 at club level, and suffering some stinging criticism from Jose Mourinho.

However, Southgate insisted the 20-year-old needs to express himself and feel the freedom to make mistakes.

“He had a difficult end to the season having to play on his own as a number nine at times. He is still filling out; we sometimes forget how old he is,” added Southgate.

“For me, at the end of the season, he cares so much you can see he was trying too hard.

“I said to all the team before the game, I expect to see mistakes tonight and, if I don't, there might be a problem because we wouldn't be being as attack-minded as we want to be.

“They are going to make errors, but they might also show the glimpses like Marcus's goal. The goal was world class.”

Southgate made 10 changes from the side that beat Nigeria 2-1 on Saturday with 19-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold of Liverpool handed his international debut at right-back.

Rashford caught the eye from the off with a sublime piece of skill down the left that forced a corner from which his United team-mate Phil Jones saw a looping header turned onto the bar by Keylor Navas.

Real Madrid goalkeeper Navas was completely caught out moments later, though, as Rashford unleashed a powerful drive from 25 yards for his third international goal.

Navas was Costa Rica's hero of an incredible run to the World Cup quarter-finals four years ago in Brazil, helping to knock England out of the group stages on the way.

However, there was a gulf in class even between Southgate's largely second string line-up and the Central Americans as England dominated.

Navas kept his side in the game by denying Vardy from point-blank range as he latched onto Leicester team-mate Harry Maguire's knockdown.

Costa Rica face tournament favourites Brazil as well as Serbia and Switzerland in Group E, and will need to show far more ambition once they get to Russia if they are to replicate their heroics of four years ago. Southgate held off making any changes until the hour mark and left Kane in reserve for the full 90 minutes as his side continued to control the game after the break.

England's rhythm was then stunted by five quickfire substitutions, including a debut for Burnley's Nick Pope in goal.

However, Welbeck also justified his inclusion in Southgate's squad by coming off the bench to seal the win 14 minutes from time as he headed home Dele Alli's cross.

Omaheke Top 8 for JulyOmaheke Top 8 for July The Epukiro Sports Council will host the Omaheke Top 8 football and netball tourney on 7 July 2018 at the Legare Stadium in Gobabis.

The tournament is played by teams from Omaheke's constituencies that reached the quarterfinals of their annual December tournaments.

Speaking to Nampa on Thursday, the public relations officer of the Epukiro Sports Council, Kuveri Tjonga, said the total budget is N$35 000. Football gets N$23 000 and the remaining N$12 000 is reserved for netball.

The registration fee per soccer team is N$1 500 and netball teams pay N$800.

However, there is a N$600 discount for clubs that enter both football and netball teams, said Tjonga.

“This is intended to encourage village teams to perform better in the two sports codes and especially to promote netball,” he explained.

The netball winners will receive N$6 000, a trophy plus 12 gold medals, while the runners-up will get N$3 000 and 12 silver medals. The two semi-finalists will each take home N$1 500.

As for soccer, the winner will walk away with N$11 000, a trophy plus 20 gold medals and the runners-up will take home N$6 000 and 20 silver medals.

There will be special prizes for the player of the tournament, coach and most disciplined player of the tournament in both sport codes.

In addition, the goalkeeper and defender of the tournament will take home trophies in the football category.

“We usually do this to promote the players and discipline them as well,” added Tjonga.

Last year's soccer winners were Okaoveni from Otjinene, who failed to qualify for this year's competition, while Aminuis-based outfit Evero won the netball category.

Fur children count

Fur children countFur children count A major pet company has introduced what it calls Pawternity leave – three-day parental leave for employees getting a new puppy or kitten.

Musti Group, the largest pet supply chain in the Nordic countries, says it came up with the idea because the wellbeing of animals is a central part of its agenda. The leave came into effect at the beginning of this month.

“Expertise and interest towards animal welfare are expected from all employees,” says David Rönnberg, Musti Group's CEO. “An impressive 90% of the company's 1 500 employees have at least one furry friend at home.

“When a furry family member first enters their new home, both pet and owner have new routines to get accustomed to. For a variety of reasons, these first days are a significant phase in the growth and development of a puppy.

“Forming a coherent pack and familiarising with the new environment require spending some time together.”

Pets always come first in everything the company does – which is why Pawternity leave is a natural step in the development of its pet culture, Rönnberg adds.

“Adopting a pet is a significant decision and changes everyday life considerably. We want to support our employees during their first days with their new family member and ensure they can enjoy those precious moments to the fullest.”

Pawternity leave will help employees combine work and free time more seamlessly, contributing to the wellbeing of their entire family, Musti Group says.

Employers in other fields should be challenged to consider a similar leave system in their own communities, says the company's marketing director, Henri Mäkinen.

“Puppy socialisation and training can't happen during evenings or weekends alone,” he says. “A puppy might feel both insecure and lost in their new home without the presence of their mother and siblings.

“If a pet is left alone for too long they'll find all sorts of things to do – not all of them necessarily pleasant to the owner.”

US, UK are 'colonial' in Syria – al-Assad

US, UK are 'colonial' in Syria – al-AssadUS, UK are 'colonial' in Syria – al-Assad Syria's President Bashar al-Assad denied Moscow is running the show in his war-torn country, saying in an interview, released Sunday, his government operates independently of its Russian and Iranian allies.

In a wide-ranging interview in Damascus with the Mail on Sunday, Assad slammed the United States and British military actions in Syria as “colonial” while praising supporter Russia.

“We've had good relations with Russia for more than six decades now, nearly seven decades. They never, during our relation, try to dictate, even if there are differences,” he told the British newspaper.

Assad admitted his government has disagreed with Russia and Iran throughout the country's seven-year conflict.

“That's very natural, but at the end the only decision about what's going on in Syria and what's going to happen, it's a Syrian decision,” he said.

Moscow intervened militarily in Syria's conflict in 2015, when Assad's forces were struggling to hold territory against rebel fighters.

Russian air strikes and military advisors have since helped regime troops seize back more than half the country.

Tehran, too, has sent military advisors to Syria, but Assad has denied that Iranian troops are on the ground.

Iran's regional foe, Israel, has repeatedly warned it will not accept an entrenched Iranian presence in Syria.

It is suspected of carrying out numerous raids on Syrian government positions over the years, and last month announced unprecedented strikes on what it said were Tehran-operated bases in Syria.

In his interview, Assad denied Moscow had ever had prior knowledge of such strikes, despite close cooperation between Israel and Russia.

“No, no, that's not true,” he said.

“Russia never coordinated with anyone against Syria, either politically or militarily, and that's (a) contradiction,” he said.

“How could they help the Syrian army advancing and at the same time work with our enemies in order to destroy our army?”

Syria's war has also drawn in many Western powers, who first backed rebel groups against Assad then shifted their focus to defeating the Islamic State jihadist group as part of a US-led coalition.

Assad lambasted the American and British interventions, saying they were “breaching the sovereignty of Syria”.

“This is colonial policy, that's how we see it, and this is not new,” he said.

He also told the Mail on Sunday that his country had stopped intelligence sharing with European nations.

“They want to exchange information despite their governments being politically against ours, so we said... When you change your political position, we're ready,” he said.

“Now, there's no cooperation with any European intelligence agencies including the British.”

The interview, according to the Mail on Sunday, was Assad's first with a British journalist since 2015. Its full transcript was published on Syrian state news agency SANA.

Optimistic but wary

Optimistic but waryOptimistic but waryTaliban announces ceasefire in Afghanistan Afghans are hopeful, but remain wary, of the possibility of lasting peace in their country. Afghans exhausted by a nearly 17-year war that is older than many of the country's citizens breathed a sigh of relief on Saturday after the Taliban announced its first ceasefire since the 2001 US invasion - but some remain wary.

The decision to suspend fighting for the first three days of Eid, the holiday that marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan and a time when Muslims visit family and friends, took many in the war-weary country by surprise.

Afghans flooded Facebook with messages of hope that the unprecedented ceasefire, which came two days after the government's own unexpected announcement of a week-long halt to operations against the Taliban, could lead to a longer-lasting peace deal.

“It is a good move by the government and Taliban. Anyone who has lost someone to this war will welcome it,” wrote Mohammad Najeeb.

Shah Jahan posted: “I hope this is a step towards peace. I also hope other terrorist groups such as Daesh don't disrupt it.”

Daesh is the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State group, which has a relatively small but potent presence in Afghanistan.

“I still cannot believe they (the Taliban) accepted the ceasefire offer. This is the very first ceasefire I have witnessed since I was born,” wrote Karwan, whose profile had only one name.

“For as long as I can remember it has been war, war, war.”

Baktash Mobarez said the Taliban's announcement had “brought so much hope and happiness” to a country worn down by four decades of conflict.

“Imagine if one day all of the 20 terrorist groups active here stop fighting,” he said.

But others expressed doubts over the Taliban's sincerity, pointing to the dozens of Afghan security forces killed in a spate of attacks claimed by the group in the hours leading up to the announcement.

'Three days is not enough'

Militants launched two separate assaults in the western province of Herat and the northern province of Kunduz overnight, killing at least 36 soldiers and police, officials said.

The group also claimed responsibility for an attack on an Afghan military base in the southern province of Kandahar.

At least 23 soldiers were killed and another nine wounded in the raid, Shah Wali Kot district police chief Padshah Khan told AFP.

The casualty toll could not be immediately confirmed.

“It makes no difference, they have already started killing loads of people before the ceasefire,” wrote Hashim Akbari.

“They have killed dozens of people in Herat and Kunduz in one day. They will kill more to make up for their ceasefire days.”

A woman in Kabul told AFP that three days was not enough and instead “we should reach for a sustainable peace throughout the country”.

Civilians have paid a disproportionate price in casualties as a result of the protracted conflict.

More than 10 000 civilians were killed or wounded in 2017, down 9% from the previous year, UN figures show.

But casualties from suicide bombings and attacks were up 17% last year as the Taliban and IS ramp up assaults in urban areas, particularly Kabul.

After many fits and starts with past peace initiatives, some Afghans pleaded for a higher power to resolve the conflict.

“May God turn this ceasefire into a permanent ceasefire between the Taliban and Afghanistan,” Faridullah Talash wrote on Facebook.

“We are tired of war and bloodshed.”

Lions crush Welwitschias

Lions crush WelwitschiasLions crush Welwitschias13-try thriller in SA Namibia could not contain the attacks of the Xerox Golden Lions in their rugby match over the weekend. The Xerox Golden Lions cruised to a comfortable 89-10 victory against the Windhoek Draught Welwitschias in the SuperSport Rugby Challenge at the Wits Rugby Stadium on Friday. (Halftime 42-03).

The home side scored 13 tries en route to an emphatic win, the second over their Namibian counterparts after recording a victory in the first round fixture, in the first week of May.

Tries for the Xerox Golden Lions were scored courtesy of a brace from Wayne van der Bank and Phumzile Moqondwana each, a try a piece via Siyabonga Masuku, Selom Gavor, Anthony Volmink, Stephen Bhasera, Eduard Fouche, Darrien-Lane Landsberg, Austin Davids, Morne van den Berg and a penalty try.

The visitors' only try was scored by JC Winkler which DJ van Weidts converted. Along with a first-half penalty via the boot of Aurello Plato, these were the only points for the Windhoek Draught Welwitschias.

It took the home side just six minutes to get the opening try when flyhalf Masuku dotted down which fullback Alwyn Cilliers converted, 7-0.

The Golden Lions would score at regular intervals, building up a substantial 35-3 lead with 15 minutes left in the opening half.

Van der Bank opened his scoring tally for the afternoon when the outside centre outsmarted the visitors' defenders to take the men from Johannesburg to a 42-3 lead as the players headed into the locker rooms for halftime.

Kirani James wins 400m

Kirani James wins 400mKirani James wins 400m Former Olympic and World champion Kirani James returned from a long layoff to claim the 400 metres at the Racers Grand Prix on Saturday, clocking a winning time of 44.35 seconds.

James produced a final burst to beat runner-up Fred Kerley of the United States by 100th of a second at National Stadium in Kingston.

The impressive showing came one day after James announced that he has Graves' disease, an immune system disorder resulting in an overproduction of thyroid hormones.

The 24-year-old James came from behind with about 40 metres remaining to catch Kerley who got off to a fast start. James said afterward he was “trying to improve my health and preparation day by day. It's just a blessing to be here and competing.”

The Grenadian, who won gold and silver at the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games, had announced in a pre-meet press conference Friday that he was suffering from the disease.

“I found out I had Graves' disease and for people who don't know what that's about, it's a disease that affects your thyroid.

“And when it overacts it affects your hormones, speeds up your metabolism, weight loss, muscle weaknesses, shortness of breath, a lot of symptoms; sometimes it varies. So I had to see doctors and be on medication.

“It's been a long road, so I am just glad to be back. And I just want to thank the Racers Grand Prix for inviting me and giving me an opportunity to come back and open up to see where I am at. I am just happy to be back,” he said.

After the race he told reporters, “I am just getting back to racing after a year and some months and trying to stay focused and determined.”

Also, Jamaican-based Great Britain runner Zharnel Hughes ran a world leading 9.91 seconds (0.4m/s), his first time under 10.00 seconds to win the men's 100m.

The long-striding Hughes got out off to a good start and held off the American Noah Lyles, who ran a personal best 9.93. Yohan Blake ran a 10.00 seconds for third.

World and Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce continued her come back after giving birth to her first child, and ran a season best 11.10 seconds in the 100m.

Springboks beat England

Springboks beat EnglandSpringboks beat EnglandKolisi captains for first time The onslaught produced three tries and 24 points from the visitors in the first 16 minutes. South Africa wrenched the first rugby test out of England's hands by coming from 24-3 down to win 42-39 at Ellis Park on Saturday, saving Siya Kolisi's first game as the Springboks' first black captain.

The Springboks wingers scored tries on their test debuts, two for right wing S'Busiso Nkosi and one for left wing Aphiwe Dyantyi, to help a young South Africa win after looking ragged under an early England onslaught.

After their fightback - racking up 36 points to England's three in the middle part of the game - the Boks held on grimly at the end as the momentum changed wildly again. England was dominant once more in the last 10 minutes and scored two late tries.

“I thought the first 20 minutes we were, at times, brilliant,” England coach Eddie Jones said. “Maybe we got seduced by the game and that might have been the cause for some uncharacteristic and costly errors.”

Both teams scored five tries, while South Africa flyhalf Handre Pollard kicked 17 points, punishing England in the second half for its high penalty count and kicking a final penalty four minutes from fulltime that was ultimately enough to get South Africa home. The comeback gave Kolisi's team a nerve-jangling but desperately welcome win and South Africa reason to be positive for the future under new coach Rassie Erasmus following a dismal past two years under Allister Coetzee.

“I was really nervous. It was a tough time to start off a game like that,” Kolisi said.

He praised the senior players around him for helping pull South Africa together after the disastrous start: “We took charge and told the guys to calm down.”

England suffered a fourth straight test loss for the first time in four years, a sudden slump after Jones' arrival as coach led to back-to-back Six Nations titles in 2016 and 2017.

Jones' side looked good for the first 20 minutes and the last 10 in Johannesburg, but lost its way badly in the middle. Jones said that was mainly down to “individual errors” and ill-discipline.

“They (South Africa) got a get-out-of-jail card,” Jones said, although he did praise South Africa for winning a “wonderful game of rugby”.

More than just looking good, England was rampant early on, with fullback-turned-wing Mike Brown sliding in at the left corner inside the first five minutes. Fullback Elliot Daly and centre and captain Owen Farrell also scored as South Africa was torn apart out wide. Farrell converted them all and kicked a penalty for 24-3 to England after 16 minutes.

“I was worried,” Erasmus said. “There was a lot of young guys on the park ... it could have gone really bad for us.”

Recalled England-based scrumhalf Faf de Klerk began the Boks' comeback with the first try. Nkosi scored in each corner, the second after combining brilliantly with fellow debutant Dyantyi. Fullback Willie le Roux, another overseas-based player recalled by Erasmus, got the fourth for South Africa, which went to halftime 29-27 ahead.

Suddenly, England was so rattled that Jones threw on New Zealand-born forward Brad Shields for his debut off the bench before halftime.

Dyantyi pushed the home team further ahead in the second half, 39-27, making England pay immediately for a yellow card to prop Mako Vunipola in his 50th test. Tries for England lock Maro Itoje and wing Jonny May in the last 10 minutes set up a thrilling finish, when England set up for one last attack from a lineout with about a minute to go. South Africa stole the throw-in - via another impressive debutant, second-rower RG Snyman - and clinched a great start to a three-test series in which both teams are desperate for success.
