NAMIBIAN President Sam Nujoma yesterday declared most of north­ern Namibia as an "emergency and disaster area".

President Nujorna's declaration was prompted by the "mystery disease" sweeping the nOlth, which has claimed numerous lives as well as affecting hundreds of other residents.

Speaking at a press conference at Oshakati, he listed the "emergency and disaster" areas as Ovambo, Kaokoland, Kavango and the Ca­privi.

President Nujoma also called on the_ international medical commu­nity and the Namibian medical community to rush personnel and aid to the area.

The disease has been rife in the north for a few months, but Iiledical personnel are struggling to accurately diagnose it. Although the symptoms are similar to cholera, this has been ruled out by the authorities. Ten days ago the Department of Health de­scribed it as a killer strain of malaria, but later expressed doubts over whether it was or not.

The President said although the

disease had been diagnosed as ma­laria, he believed it could be more than that.

Over the past few days President Nujorna, who started a nationwide tour at the end of last week, has visited Kaokoland, Ruacana, Onesi in the Oukolonkadhi area, Tsandi in the Uukwaluudhi region, Okahao at Ogandjera, and Okalongo and Omungwelume in the Oukwanyama district.

He told reporters that at hospitals he visited he found people afflicted _ by the " mystery" diseasse suffering from headaches, acute stomach pains, diarrhoea and vomiting.

The President said nurses had told him the onset of the "mystery " dis­ease had placed a severe strain on medical facilities in the north.

Problems listed by them included insufficient medicine, not enough staff and overflowing wards.

At the moment, the Uukwaluudhi Hospital with a capacity for 200

Right-wing makes threatening call

THE Namibian police are investigat­ing a right-wing threat that a bid to destablise and ultimately overthrow the Namibian government will get underway this week.

The threat was made in a telephone call to The Namibian late last night. The caller, who refused to identify himself, claimed to have received a telex statement from • 'far-right people" and was told to pass it on to a reporter of The Namibian. Speak­ing very calmly, he said: "I am just carrying out orders. "

The content of the so-called state­-ment he read over the telephone basically said right-wing groups were tired of people interfering in their business; "we are anned to the teeth"; and "every Boer is battle-ready to overthrow the govenunent and we will start with it this week" .

patients, has to cope with more than 700 patients, creating an unhealthy situation, with most of the patients lying in the hospital's corridors.

Nujoma said he had also been in­formed that at Tsandi Hospital alone, people were dying at the rate of six a day.

Another problem was a lack of transport needed to ferry patients to Oshakati.

The President called on the inter­national medical community to as­sist with medical help to combat this mysterious disease which has killed and was still killing Namibians.

He also appealed to community leaders - like business people , pas-

_ tors, teachers, doctors and nurses -and those living in the disaster areas to help with transpo'rting patients to the Oshakati Hospital, as well as the transporting of needed medicines.

Nujorna said he had spoken to doctors and nurses at the Oshakati Hospital and had asked them to immediately go out and help medical personnel at the outside hospitals.

He emphasised that as soon as he returned to Windhoek, he would talk to doctors and nurses in Windhoek about personnel here and in other parts of the country going to the north to help out at hospitals treating the disease.

Dr Marcus Shivute, who heads medical services in Ovambo and was with the President, also expressed grave concern over the "mystery " disease and welcomed northern re­gions being declared " disaster and emergency" areas.

He also called on Namibians to assist medical personnel and patients in the north.

WHITES SIGN UP AS ANC MEMBERS JOHANNESBURG - About 100 whites in Benoni and Springs -regarded as the heart of white conservatism on the Reef - have been signed up as ANC members, according to the ANC's intemalleader for the Vaal triangle, Greg Malebo. -

In an interview with Sapa on Sunday, Malebo claimed the ANC was making "real gains", particularly in the 19 townships of the East Rand.

"It is very encouraging that we now have about 100 white members from Benoni and Springs. I believe we are gaining numerous white members in other areas as well but exact figures are not certain at this stage," he said.

He claimed the ANC had more than 2 000 black and white signed~up members in Delmas alone and membership was increasing in Duduza and Tokoza.

Malebo launched a major recruitment drive in Tokoza on Sunday. Signed­up members were issued with cards during a mass report back rally on the Tokoza rent boycott.

ANTANANARIVO - Soldiers fired tear gas and bullets to retake the national radio station on Sunday about six hours after dissidents seized the facility and broadcast that government had been overthrown.

Exchanges of gunfire were reported between soldiers and the 11 dissi. dents holed up in the state-run Radio Madagascar station, but witnesses at the scene said there appeared to be no casualties.

An opposition group in Paris claimed 50 people died in the clash, but those figures were dismissed by ajournal­ist on the scene as "completely false".

The communique by the Paris-based Madagascar Committee for Democ­racy and Development said the infor­mation came by telephone from the Indian Ocean island.

"There was fighting between the rebels and security forces that has reportedly ended," said a U.S. em­bassy official on condition of ano­nymity. "The crowd in front of the station has been dispersed. "

The government announced ear­lier that the situation in the country was normal.

The journalist said that calm had returned to the area around the sta­tion, located near the island's Hilton hotel.

"Tear gas cannisters were fired off right in front of the Hilton Ho­tel," said a Dutch guest at the hotel about 3pm. "There are still quite a few people in the street at the mo­ment."

Diplomats on the island and Radio Madagascar had earlier reported no other disturbances on the island other than the seizure of the station.

A woman came on radio in Antan­anarivo, the capital, to broadcast the dissidents' message at 6.30am.

She called on the population to rise up against the government, but her broadcast was cut off after about 45 minutes. Government fQrces later sur­rounded the building but remained outside. About 5 000 people milled around the station. It was unknown

whether they supported the rebels' call or were simply curious.

The troops who stormed the sta­tion apparently fired tear gas to dis­perse the crowd and simultaneously blasted cannisters into the buildings windows. The shooting took place inside, witnesses said.

About five hours later the radio broadcast a communique in the name of Premier Victor Ramahapra that denied a coup had taken place.

"This Sunday, May 13, a group of individuals forced their way into the Malagasy radio station at 6.30am," the communique said. "This group broadcast a message saying that the present government has beim abol­ished. This information is ground­less. "

The communique continued: "By 7. lOam the situation was under the control of the security forces. Every­thing is calm and the nation's life is back to normal. " .

The U.S. embassy official said it was unclear whether the government communique was broadcast from the main station or another outlet.

Change in SA 'irreversible' De Klerk tells Greek hosts

ATHENS - Canadian External Affairs Minister Joe Clark and his deputy were due to meet his South Mrican counterpart, Pik Botha, in Athens on Sunday evening as the second leg of President F W de Klerk's nine-nation European tour ended.

The one-hour meeting with Clark, one of the government's most out­spoken critics in the international community, was agreed to by Botha after a request via Canadian diplo­mats in Athens, South African offi­cials indicated. Recent statements by Cl.aIX on developments in South Africa were likely to be raised by Botha. . The bilateral discussions were,

however, expected to run along the same theme which De Klerk is put­ting to European leaders without calling specifically for sanctions to be lifted or at least relaxed.

The message is that government­initiated changes in South Africa should be accepted as irreversible and that the international community must substantially re-evaluate its policies on the country now in prepa­ration for the economic assistance a post-apartheid society will need.

In his discussions so far with France's socialist President Francois Mitterand and Greece's newly elected conservative Prime Minister, Con­stantine Mitsotakis, De Klerk's firm commitment to further rapid reform

- within months - was warmly wel­comed.

French officials confirmed the fact that De Klerk's formal meeting with President Mitterand was accompa­nied by a full guard of honour and that it was unexpectedly extended by half an hour, was a strong signal of a sympathetic hearing.

Greece's Premier said at a joint press conference with De Klerk after their talks, that he firmly believed changes in . South Africa were irre­versibly for the better, even though he was at pains to reiterate his coun­try's condemnation of continued apartheid.

As one of the 12 members of the European Community, he said, Greece would be participating actively in next month's Dublin summit discus­sions on a review of official EC pol­icy towards South Africa.

can government's case, after having met De Klerk for face-to-face dicsus­sions, is viewed as very important.

"They're not swing votes, which means they will tend to follow the lead of the big guys in the EC, but they do have one vote each out of 12," one South African official said.

While De Klerk' s reception in Athens was clearly promising at government level, it was marked at the weekend by an anti-apartheid demonstration and violence.

While De Klerk and his wife, Marike, -relaxed privately at the weekend for a sightseeing tour of Greece, a peaceful demonstration on Friday night by the Greek Commu­nist Party and left-wing supporters deteriorated into violent clashes with riot squads in which "molotov cock­tails" (petrol bombs) were thrown at police and the parliamentary build­ing.

Six people were reported injured and a similar number arrested in running battles with police in central Athens.

BLOOM COUNTY by Berke Breathed

Current EC policy , confmned at a Foreign Minster' s meeting in Febru­ary - with the exception of Britain, which has already lifted some meas­ures - 'is that sanctions against South Africa must remain in place until change away from apartheid is clearly and profoundly irreversible.

The city' s newspapers reported prominently on the riots on Satur­day, some mentioning De Klerk ' s actual visit almost as an afterthought, but it was generally accepted, re­gardless of political leanings, that the peaceful demonstration had been disrupted by hooligans.

Hamutenya 'not shocked' --- over CCB murder plan ---MINISTER of Information and Broadcasting Hidipo Hamutenya said on Friday he was "not shocked" at the reported claim by CCB operative Petrus Botes that the CCB had planned to kill him.

"The possibility of assassination was always there," Hamutenya said, commenting on a report in the South African weekly V rye Weekblad and The Namibian that the CCB planned his murder and also to disrupt Swapo election meetings by violent means.

"I'd been warned during those days (of the election campaign and the secondhalf oflast year) that there was a plan to kill me," he said, adding Swapo security officials had stepped up his personal security.

Hamutenya described assassination attempts as an "occupational hazard" of public political activity. "There were many embittered people who did not want to see change and who had been brainwashed to hate Swapo," he said.

Asked to comment on whether the call should be regarded as a scare tactic or should be taken seriously, CID chief Jumbo Smit said he could not comment at this stage.

He said he was "surprised" and found it "very strange". "I thought we were already'past this stage," he commented,

* Low-income housing The President turns 61 NAMIBIAN President Sam Nu joma turned 61 on Saturday, celebrating his first birthday in more than 30 years on Namibian soil. A message was received from Swapo, congratulating the President on his 61st birthday on May 12, and commending him for the past 30 years spent ' 'in the struggle for freedom and national independence" in which he demonstrated his "unwavering commitment and dedication to the cause of our people ". The message concluded by saying: "We wish to express our confidence in you, that just as you successfully led us during the independence struggle, you will continue to do so in the years to come".

Swabou pitches in SW ABOU has established an R800 000 trust fund with the annual interest made available to help low-income groups afford basic housing.

Don Russell of Swabou announced the trust fund at a press conference on Friday at which Housing Minister Dr Libertine Amathila and Deputy Minister Jerry Ekandjo were also present.

Russell said he hoped the fund would allow low-income groups get their feet on the firs t rung of the housing ladder. He also hoped other companies would follow suit by contributing to this or similar trust fund s "in order to relieve the dire need in the housing sector of Na­mibia" .

Loans from the trust fund would be available to first-time home-owners, buying stands not exceeding 7'!fJ square meters. As a general rule the house built on it would be a single-bedroom hou se no bigger than 80 square me­ters , though it could later be devel­oped into a six-room home with a kitchen and bathroom.

The maximum loan would be R55 000 initially . and the erf would be bought and developed by Swabou

Development Company under con­tract.

The minimum loan would be 80 per cent and the maximum 100 per cent for cases where no deposit was available. Repayments according to income ratio would not be more than 30 per cent of the borrower's total regular household income.

The trust fund forms part of a Rl million Swabou contribution to the new Namibia, Rl00 000 of which went towards the independence cele­brations and Rl00 000 to sport.

Thanking Swabou for its ac­knowledgement of Namibia's hous­ing needs, Amathlla said the money would be carefully looked after, " I'll be leaving it in the hands of profes­sionals and using specialist advice for its distribution."

She said anyone would be eligible for a housing loan from the fund and that particularly disadvantaged sec­tions of society such as single-parent women would be positively bene­fited by the scheme.

Peace in Namibia a priority PRESIDENT Sam Nujoma said on Saurday it was the will of his government that peace should prevail in the country. Speaking at Ruacana, Nujoma said it was the duty of each Namibian to contribute to peace and stability. He called on the people to report without delay elements who crossed the border from Angola with the intention of de stabilising Namibia. He also called for close cooperation between the two countries, because Angola had made an important contribution to Namibia's independence. On education and health issues, Nujoma said the government would give priority to the construction of schools and hospitals and the extension of the water supply network.

At the moment, she said, her Ministry was conducting an exten­sive questionnaire to evaluate the real needs of low-income housing groups, including squatters. She was also looking into training organisers of more self-help schemes along the lines of the Katutura-based Saam­staan housing cooperative.

When a questioner suggested that other areas of the country had hous­ing crises just as desperate as Wind­hoek' s, Arnathila replied, "We have to start somewhere."

Until the old 'homeland' areas were proclaimed towns, home-ownership schemes could not be initiated in places like Oshakati. " As I am committed to home-ownership hous­ing policies, I can focus on Wind­

A Katutura housing development scheme based at Goreangab was no~ in process. The plots were being serviced and should be ready to build on within three months.

In the meantime, applicants for the new housing loans would be subject 'to a kind of means tests to evaluate their suitability for the scheme.

He thanked Unicef for helping to develop the programme and train staff over the last three months, as well as for its material aid. "I hope this cooperation between Unicef and the government will carry on into the future," he said.

Unicef has been supported in pro­viding aid for the EPI by donor gov­ernments and non-governmental or­ganisations in Canada, Sweden and Japan.

There had been an over concentration on urban-based hospi­tals, a chaotically wasteful system of parallel services run along racial and tribal lines, Between 1980 to 1987 the militarization of hospitals in the north of the country had led to a decline in the managerial and staff­ing roles of the churches, and the war had forced many outlying rural clin­ics to close.

Gurirab jets out for FLS 'roundtable ' FOREIGN Affairs Minister Theo­Ben Gurirab and a Namibian delegation flew to Norway this weekend to a meeting between the Frontline States and Nordic countries in Oslo.

Deputy Minister of Foreign Af­fairs Netumbo Ndaitwah said the meeting would seek the views of the ANC on developments in South Africa and advise the organisation on de­mocracy and ways of abolishing apartheid.

Ndaitwah said the Frontline States would continue to assess the South African situation and advise the Organisation of African Unity on a "liberation" policy for the country.

SOME of the women who will form Namibia's first women's brickmaking company listen to Dr Libertine Amathila's advice on how to get going.

She said there were no objections to the ANC conducting its political and diplomatic struggle in Frontline States.

lishing a women's brickmaking company inN amibia was floated, the company looks set to become a real­ity.

KATE BURLING Legal researcher Dianne Hubbard

gave some kick-off advice and more was to be sought from agencies spe­cialising in small business enterprises.

Powered by the energy of Housing Minister Libertine Amathila and the enthusiasm of local women, a group of about 20 will shortly begin train­ing in order to get the project going.

Tomorrow representatives of the group will visit the Legal Assistance Centre to find out how best to form their company.

In the meantime, offers of wheel­barrows, brickmaking machines and materials are being phoned into the Ministry by various crnstructioo. finns. Imaginations seem to have been fired by the women's determination to get involved in the country's new hous­ing policy and to create employment for some of the most hamstrung

members of Namibian society. At a meeting of interested women

on the Tintenpalast lawns on Friday morning, Amathila brought good news to 30 or so would-be brickmakers.

She had just secured a substantial amount of money for housing proj­ects in the form of a trust fund from Swabou and some of this would be used to help get the brickmaking company on the road.

" But", stressed Amathila, "the money will only be a loan. It's to buy the brickmaking machines, materi­als and to pay the initial wages of your employees. ' ,

After three to six months, the loan would have to be repaid . and the women would be on their own, said the Minister. She was at p~ to

point out the need for commitment among the company members and said they must quickly adapt to high standards of professionalism.

But the women were not put offby Amathila's uncompromising portrait of the business world,

At the end of the meeting, all the women present wrote down their names to become part of the new company.

Some had accounting and book­keeping skills, some had secretarial skills and others were returnees with working knowledge of similar proj­ects in different countries.

There was plenty of expertise nec­essary to build their company, and help was on hand to fill the gaps.

Topcor Namibia, whose represen­tative, Cohen van Zyl, was also pres­ent on Friday, will be involved in es­tablishing future educational train­ing centres for the women, but their initial training ground may well be at Brakwater.

After that, it will be a case of setting up their machines and materi­als on building sites around the coun­try and getting on with the job.

As one of the women eager to be part of the new company said on Friday: "I don't care what position I have as long as I'm involved. Being able to pay your way is vital.

To be contributing to something as important as housing is a good way to do it."

POLICE in Ovambo are having problems with people who undermine their authority and walk around armed at night.

Police said groups of up to 50 people were crowding together to stop police from performing their duties and investigating crime, which resulted in threats and intimidation against police trying to maintain law and order.

The public' s hostile attitude was hindering effective law enforcement.

Police suggested that Home Af­fairs Minister Hifikepuny Pohamba, and the Inspector-General of police , Lieutenant General Piet Fouche, should repeat a successful visit to Ovambo of about a month ago to' promote cooperation between the public and the police. - Sapa

Barbara Bush invite upsets US feminists

WELLESLEY, Massachusetts - United States First Woman Barbara Bush has stirred a national debate by incurring the wrath of militant feminist students at a small Boston college where she is due to speak.

Feminists.at Wellesley College say Bush, who is to be the graduation speaker, has subordinated. her life and career to that of her President husband.

Her homespun, grandmotherly image rules her out as a fit model for ambitious women of the 199Os, they say. Two decades after the bra-burn­ing heyday of feminism, the protest against Bush has renewed national debate about a woman's choice be­tween career or family.

George Bush himself has become involved in the furore - assuring the young women of Wellesley they have a lot to learn from his wife.

"These young women can have a lot to learn from Barbara Bush and from her unselfishness and from her advocacy of literacy and from her being a good mother," he told a Washington news conference.

"To honour Barbara Bush as a commencement speaker is to honour a woman who has gained recognition . through the achievements of her husband, which contravenes what we have been taught over the last four years, " 150 students wrote in a peti­tion to Wellesley president Nannerl Keohane. .

Dr Keohane says Barbara Bush will still speak on June I, and calls the whole debate healthy, albeit complex. "Feminism is very hard to pin down, but it is certainly not anti-

family, " Keohane sai4 in a recent interview.

Bush is known as a home-loving woman - a supportive wife and moIher. But she says the students' protest is reasonable. "I chose to live the life I've lived, and I think it's been a fabulously exciting, interesting, in­volved life ... They're 21 years old and they're looking at life from that perspective. I don't disagree with what they're looking at," she told reporters at a White House lunch.

Opinion is split at Wellesley, an el.egant, elite college of 2 200 stu­dents. "I feel a bit embarrassed for poor Mrs Bushcoming here knowing people don't want her," said Joanna Drell, a 1987 graduate.

"She's a perfectly nice woman who raised four children," said Orell. "But we could have had any mother. "

Variny Em, a 21-year-old senior, favoured Bush's invitation. "We are students of today. We have choices that weren't available back then. 1bey couldn't even fathom motherhood -we want it all," said Em.

Black feminist writer Alice W aIker was originally chosen to speak but could not appear.

"Her (Bush's) professional achiev~ ments are not, I believe, as strong (as the other candidates). But being the wife of a President is a very tough job, very real," said Felicia Wilker­son, 18. - Sapa

THE NAMIBIAN

CHAIRPERSON of 'Women of Namibia' Jnge Murangi Oeft) and vice-chairperson Monica Koep, moments after their election at last Saturday's meeting to choose the organisation's rrrst executive committee.

Women's rights gain ground in Zimbabwe

HARARE, Zimbabwe - The women chatted excitedly as they took off on the one and a half hour drive to Chiweshe to attend a two-day train­ing seminar. Most had never been there before.

"Not so long ago", says Perpetua Mgaya, a women's group official, "my husband would never have al­lowed me to go on ·such a trip. "

Now things are changing. The government and women's organisa­tions "encourage us to participate in development. Our men allow us to travel to places like Chiweshe," she says.

Such small gestures indicate the start of a revolution for Zimbabwe's rural women who, under colonialism and tradition, have had one of the worst deals of any African women.

Before independence in 1980, land deprivation and tax laws drove many men out of rural areas to work on commercial fanus, in mines, or in towns. Credit schemes, marketing arrangements and extension services barely touched the impoverished communal areas. Black women were regarded as minors all their lives, barred from owning land or entering into legal contracts.

Even where men remained in the rural areas, tradition dictated that women do most of the work. Susan Marewo, A Chiweshe farmer whose husband has not left to work in town, sums it up this Wll¥: "He does the planning and I do the work. "

All told, says Tendai Bare, penna­. nent secretary in . the Ministry of Community and Cooperative Devel-

opment and Women's Affairs, "most of the agricultural work falls on women, in tenus of land preparation, harvesting and even transportation of the crop to the grain-marketing depot". .

This reality has nof changed much - but important political and legal changes have taken place which are gradually influencing the balance of power between women and men in Zimbabwe's rural areas.

, 'At meetings and rallies after independence", explains Magaya, "it was announced that everybody must have the same rights; that there was no difference between a woman and a man.

Through a government act chang­ing the legal age of majority in 1982, black women for the first time be­came adults at the age of 18 like male Zimbabweans.

"For the first time we could take credit in our own names, and sell our own grain to the Grain Marketing Board (GMB) without having to go through our husbands ...

This has led to new demands at a household level. Magaya' s husband now gives her full control over four acres of their 14-acre (5,7 hectares) plot. Although she puts in time on his land as well, she buys the input for her plot and with her GMB card gets full proceeds. Food for the family comes from the husband's lot, but both . contribute to the children's expenses.

"Before", notes Magaya, "it was hard for me to say I want some money to buy pots. Now, Ijust take my own

money from my own bank account, without any arguments, without any questions.' ,

Fieldworkers say, however, that in many cases women continue to elect men to leadership posts. Women are only chairpersons of five out of the 55 chapters of the National Farmers . Association of Zimbabwe. which represents peasant farmers, even though women make up the majority of its members.

Marewo describes the classic case in her area of a failed all-men coop­erative amalgamating with an all­women cooperative. The men from the failed cooperative immediately got leadership posts.

Often, women are not aware of their rights. Erenica Kunaka, a Chiweshe farmer whose husband · works in Harare, said she could not get a loan from the Agriculture Fi­nance Corporation as she did not own land - in fact, a requirement that has long since been abolished for small­scale farmers.

Women also complain that male extension woIkers tend to ignore them. According to Marewo, when the agricultural demonstrator visits her home' 'he talks to my husband, man to man".

But things are beginning to change. "My husband is now willing to let me go to meetings", says Magaya, "because he knows that when I meet other women, I get new ideas. He can also say to himself: 'If I die tomor­row, I know my wife will survive because she has knowledge, she can take care of herself'. " - PANOS

'GET UP, STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS' mE negotiations between the ANC and the government had no chance of resulting In solutions that would alleviate the status of women or workers, the president of the South African Imbeleko Women's Organisation, Rose N gwenya, said on Saturday. AddreSSing about 500 delegates ofImbeleko at the first national congress In Soweto, Ngwenya said socialism was tbe only hope for black Soutb Africans. She said at best, the ANC could only bope to get concessions from President F W de Klerk, and tbese would not address the problems of the homeless and hungry poor who were "victims of capitalism". Ngwenya said women had to stand up and fight the government's attempts to prlvatlse healtb and other facilities, as this meant the state, wblle rollectlng taxes from people, was reluctant to provide services to the nation. Speaking on the theme 'A Nation Can Never Be Free Until Its Women Are Free. DownWltb Sexism', guest speaker Thandeka Mgoduso said sexism would continue to prop up other oppressive strategies such as racism, agels'.ft, competition and economic exploitation. Sbe said women were Indoctrinated Into accepting male domination by bel.tg 'told at marriage to SUffer In silence. As a result, women bad "learnt to live with mistreatment to the point where Its gUiding' prhiciples "ere accepted as given, as natural to human beings" •• Sapa .

Focus on the 'koringkriek'

EVERYONE must have seen what are commonly called 'koringkrieke' ail over Namibia lately.

It is quite typical to see them in pairs, huddled on to one another. One place that is full of them is A vis dam on the outskirts of Windhoek.

Last Sunday evening, many of them were producing a sort of white fluid which enclosed the eggs which they were laying in the soil.

1binking they would still be doing this by Wednesday I went to the dam with my camera but it was too late: the 'koringkrieke' were obviously on a tight schedule and this activity seemed to be over.

Insect expert John Irish explained this as typical 'koringkriek' behavi­our at the end of sununer.

"They hatch every year after the rains and are vegetarians, eating anything green until it is in short supply.

"Then they start eating anything, including meat. And if one 'koringk­riek' finds another injured, it will turn to cannibalism. ' ,

One Windhoek resident said re­cently he had seen a ' koringkriek' eat a shoe!

The start of winter, as was evident on Sunday, is also egg-laying time.

KAMPALA - Politicians, political scientists and leaders from 12 African nations met in Uganda yesterday to draw up proposals to give Africa a new political outlook for the 21 st century.

The six-day conference in Mweya, western Uganda, was sponsored by the Swedish-based Dag Hammarskjold Foundation.

Foundation director Sven Hamrell told Reuters the conference, with the theme: 'The State and the Crisis in Africa: In Search of a Second Libera­tion', would suggest ways for a "sec­ond liberation" of the continent. The first liberation referred to the end of colonialism.

"It is increasingly accepted in Af­rica that a few citizens have been able to reap the fruits of the first liberation because of the growing alienation of the state from society and the tendency towards state monopoly and control of all policies affecting the people," Hamrell said.

"The load of the state must be re­duced and its legitimacy recreated."

Participants included exiled King Moshoeshoe of Lesotho and veteran Kenyan politicians Martin Shikuku. Other delegates came from Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania, Uganda, Botswana, Senegal , Zambia, Mozambique, Zaire and Guinea.

The Dag Hammerskjold Foundation was established in 1962 in memory of the UN Secretary-General who died in an air crash during the cris is in the Congo, now Zaire. - Sapa-Reuter

Seen any 'nice men.' recently?

TOKYO - Most single Japanese women think the main reason they have not yet tied the knot is a scarcity of "nice men" , a survey published on Friday showed . -

The survey of 500 women conducted by the Altmann Institute, a Tokyo­based matchmaking agency, found that four out of five women did not think

. they had even seen any nice men re­cently.

The survey showed a "nice man" '. wa~ one who was good-looking, intelli­

gent, talkative, honest and highly paid. - Sapa-Reuter

As all of us have seen, the 'ko­ringkriek' survives well and hatches from its eggs very efficiently.

While there are people who be­lieve 'koringkrieke' are poisonous, this is not so, says Irish.

" There are birds which eat them as well as small mammals."

While they have the potential to be a nuisance among crops, they seem to generally live harmlessly in Namibia.

'Koringkrieke' are also called com crickets or armoured ground crickets and they occur everywhere in the western part of southern Africa.

If you have anything to tell us about 'koringkrieke', write to "Eyes on the Environment", The Namib­ian, P.O.Box 20783, Windhoek.

(~-----,--GR_A_S_SE~S_--,-,JJ GRASSES are an important compo­nent of Nanubian ecosystems. Some species are widespread in the coun­try, others are more restricted in their distribution. They make up a large part of the food of wild herbivores and farm livestock. Yet some species have better food value than others. So we should begin to get to know the grasses of Namibia.

€IaSSlflcatlonOfgraSSe~ Many features areused to classify grasses. However, the most impor­tant features for classification con­cern the structure of the flowers and their distribution on the plant.

Structure of the flower > (FJgure .1) •..••.

To see the structure of the flower in detail you need either a hand lense (which is cheap) or a nlicroscope. And to see all the parts you must exanline the grass during summer. The individual flower is called a flo­ret. ·Florets are clustered together in spikelets. So a spikelet usually has two or more florets, but occasionally only one. Each floret has two protec-

tive bracts (scale leaves) on the outside called the lemma and palea. Inside are various structures, includ­ing the anthers and stigma which disappear when the seed is foimed., The lemma mayor may not bear a thin awn. Around the base of the spikelet are two bracts, called glumes. All the spiklets together make up the inflorescence. There are several types of arrange­ment of spikelets in inflorescences. Two are shown in the figure. In Era­grostis lehmanniana the inflorescence is very open with scattered spike lets. In Anthephora pubescens the inflo­rescence is very compact, all the spikelets being crowded together.

( Typ!~9igrElss\ @ There are well over 100 species of grass inNamibia and you would need to use a textbook of grasses to iden­tify most of them. I will simply say something about three genera of grasses (a genus, plural genera, is a collection of closely related species). In Nanubia, Aristida, Stipagrostis and Eragrostis are widespread genera, each containing many species. Aristida and Stipagrostis 'have only one floret in each spikelet, and the

lemma bea,rs awns. hi both genera each lemma bears three awns. Stipagrostis may be dis­tinguished from Aristida by the fact that the central awn of the three (sometimes all three awns) is cov­ered in thin hairs. In Aristida, all awns are hairless. So if you find a grass with three hairless awns .it is likely to be Aristida. If, on the other hand, you find a grass with at least the central awn of the three awns hairy, it is likely to be Stipagrostis. In Eragrostis, each spikelet usually contains several or many florets (but only two in one species). The spikel­ets are laterally compressed and there are no awns. If you find a grass that answers to this description it is likely to be a species of Eragrostis, but there are a few other grasses you nlight nlistake for Eragrostis.

Stipagrostis uniplumis

This is easily distinguiShed from other species of Stipagrostis that occur in

, Namibia by the fact that where the elongated tip of the lemma branches into the.three awns, there is a tuft of hairs (see Figure 1). Stipagrostisuniplunlls is a very widespread grass in Namibia. Con­sidering all grass species inNamibia, Stipagrostis uniplunlls is probably

the species that makes the biggest contribution to the yearly pasture production of the country. Its com­monname in English is "silky Bush­man grass". •• Silky" it really is. In many parts of Namibia during the summer, if you look over the countryside shortly before sunset, you will see a whole sea of silky white grasses waving in the breeze. These grasses are species of Stipagrostis, often Stipagrostis uni­plunlis. The white colour comes from the colour of the hairy central awns on nlillions of spikelets. "Bushman" also is a good part of the name since this species of grass occurs commonly over a large part of the fonner range of BuShman peoples in southern Africa.

Value of grasses to livestock

Three things contribute to the nutri­tive value of a grass: a) nitrogen content (measured as "crude protein") b) digestibility c) palatability

a) Crude protein. This is a measure of the nitrogen content of a grass. Ani­mals like cattle and wild herbivores can use the nitrogen-containing compounds and tum them into their

, own flesh (protein). So beef is largely protein. b) Digestibility. The digestibility of a grass is the percentage of the dry matter in the grass that the animal can digest and utilise. c) Palatability. If a grass has a high or moderate crude protein value and is very or fairly digestible, yet the cattle refuse to eat it, it is of little value as a pasture grass. The grass Cymbopo­gon excavatus is an example. It con­tains an oil which gives the grass a bitter taste and a strong aromatic smell, so the cattle avoid it, except when it is very young. The following table gives some in­formation about crude protein and digestibility for just a few of the grasses that are found in Nanlibia during the Wet season.

i " I

Variation of Illltritive value of grasses not only affects humankind's live­stock. It also, of course, affects the wild herbivores that were around before man came on the scene, some of which are still around.

Distribution of grass species (Figure 2)

Some grass species are both com­mon and widespread. The best ex­ample is Stipagrostis uniplunlis. Some species are only found or largely confined to the north-east of the country. An example is Pogonarthria squarrosa. Some species are confined to or are mainly found in only the southern and south-western regions of the country, eg, Brachiaria glomerata. We must later look into the question of why some species are confined to the north-east and others to the south­west of the country. Some species of grass are almost confined to some particular type of ground or soil. A few are largely confined to rocky mountainous ar­eas, like Anthephora ramosa. Others occur mainly on Kalahari sand, eg, Panciwn kalaharense. Yet again, some grasses are mainly found in season­ally wet areas like oshanas and omurambas.

Grasses are not all the same. Not only do the species look different from each other, but they also differ in where they occur and in their nutri­tive value.

BSB-bom maak groot opslae ...

Is staatsdiens vry van BSB-agente? vra Tjongarero

IN die lig van die vars onthullings oor die naweek dat die Burgerlike Samewerkingsburo (BSB) met rniljoene tot hul beskikking tot ver in die buiteland bedrywig was om 'vyande van Suid-Afrika' uit te wis, vra hy steeds of dit verregaande is vir Swapo om die mening te huldig dat mense gestuur is om die beweging te infiltreer.

S6 het die Adjunk-minister van Inligting en Uitsaaiwese, Danny Tjongarero, gister gese toe hy. om kommentaar genader is nadat die Johannesburgse koerant, Vrye Weekblad, onthul het dat hy en sy Minister, Hidipo Hamutenya, na bewering deur die BSB uit die Swapo­leiers gekies is om vermoor te word.

Jacques Pauw van Vrye Weekblad het die naweek die born rondom die geheimsinnige BSB behoorlik laat bars toe hy 'nonderhoud met een van die top manne van die SA Weer­magsorganisasie, Pieter Botes, gepub­liseer het.

Opspraakwekkende bewerings oor hoe die BSB, wat gekoppel word aan die moord op Anton Lubowski, 'n deurdagte ontwrigtingsplan uitgew­erk het om Namibie se onafhan­klikheidsverkiesings onder VV -toe­sig te kelder, is in detail beskryf.

Die plan, wat deur drie selle van die BSB wat in die land ontplooi is uitgevoer sou word, behels onder meer die volgende:

,.. Hamutenya, Swapo se Sekretaris van Inligting en Publisiteit, en Tjon­garero, vise-voorsitter van die bewe­ging, moes vennoor word "om twees­palt in Swapo te veroorsaak. Dit moes lyk asof Swapo self die werk gedoen het";

,.. bomme moes by Swapo~vergad­erings geplantword. Die span is selfs opdrag gegee omhandgranate tussen die massas in te gooi;

... geelkoors- en cholera-kieme moes in die drinkwater by die vlugte­lingskampe van Swapoop Dobra en Ondangua gegooi word. Bevestiging is gekry dat DObra se water suksesvol besmet is, maar die hoe chloor-in­houd het die kieme verswak;

... Untag-hoof Martti Ahtisaari en sy regterhand, Cedric Thornberry, se motors moes uitgebrand word om hulle te intirnideer, maar hulle moes geen liggaamli.ke leed aangedoen word nie;

... mambas en pofadders moes gevang en by Swapo-vergaderings tussen die mense ingegooi word; en

,.. 'ndrukpers wat Swapo via Walvis­baai sou invoer, moes opgeblaas geword het.

Botes, wat klaarblyklik die dinge bely het nadat hy en sy hoof, kolonel Joe Verster, haaks geraak en 'n born by sy kantoor afgegaan het, het vertel dat hy reeds in Junie verlede jaar met sy span met instruksies na Namibie gekomhet.

Hulle het onrniddellik begin om Swapo-kampe te infiltreer deur rnid­del van 'n opeJ::ateu~. wllt Ovambo

'Aanspraak van SA spioene in eie geledere was nie verregaande'

konpraat. "Tjongarero is van die moordlys

afgehaaI nadat hy 'n niersiekte opgedoen het, maar die planne het voortgegaan om Hamutenya te skiet. Daar is bes1uit om hom met 'n Russiese pistool by die Namibia Nite-nagklub in Windhoek te skiet. Hy het die klub gereeld besoek," skryf Vrye Weekblad.

'n Vrag wapens is gekoop deur die BSB en naby Win~oek geberg, en drie Swapo-Iede is gewerf om die doodvonnis op Hamutenya te vol­trek.

In die proses moes ook sowat 54 Swapo-voertuie gesaboteer word met 'n soort olie wat die enjin laat vasbrand. 'n Weermagdokter het die kieme verskaf wat gebruik is.

Die drie selle wat in Namibie bedrywig was, is: Streek 2; die van Staal Burger, wat saam met Chappie Maree gesoek word op 'n klag van moord op Lubowski; en die Namibie­streek van Roelf van der Westhuizen en Rockey van Blerk.

Die plan was teen 23 Augustus opgestel en Botes het teruggekeer na . Pretoria, maar 'n uitval tussen hom en sy hoof, Verster, kon veroorsaak het dat die meeste planne deur die mat geval het.

Botes het vertel dat Lubowski nie op die BSB se moordlys was nie, a1hoewel hy ses maande voor sy moord genader is om as agent vir hulle op te tree. Hy sou die aanbod geweier het.

Dit kan wees dat Lubowski geskiet is na die BSB-selle in Namibie in wanorganisasie gedornpel is weens Botes se onttrekking.

Tjongarero het gister gese die feit dat sy naam in die Botes-belydenis gemeld word, het V rydag nie vir hom as 'n verrassing gekom nie.

"Jy moet onthou dat as 'n mens jouself verbind tot die bevryding­stryd en in die leeu se bek loer en sy snor trek, enigiets met jou kan gebeur. Selfs ~oor ons kollegas uit die buite­land teruggekom het, het motors met donker ruite buite ons huise gestaan en ek met reeds die vermoede gehad dat ek op hul moordlys is," het hy gese.

V olgens hom was dit duidelik dat die mense agter die moordplanne van plan was om Swapo se voorbeid­ings vir die verkiesings in November te ontwrig.

Op 'n vraag ofhy glo dat wat V rye Weekblad aan die hand van Botes vertel het die waarheid was, het Tjongarero gese, "Ek glo! Maar dis die risiko van die bevrydingstryd. ' ,

Hyhetvertel dathy verlede jaar 'n vreemde besoeker uit Upington ontvang het wat hom as 'n ",<om­rade" voorgedoen het. Die is opdrag gegee om sy huis se ligging en h~ die onderskeie kamersgelee is, nit te vind. .

PIUS DUNAISKI

"Nee, hierdie dinge kom as niks nuutsnie. Dit was duidelikdat sekere mense in Suid-Afrika desperaat geword het toe (Resolusie) 435 onafwendbaar geword bet verlede jaar, en hUlle het alles gedoen om die skaal in bulle guns te probeer swaai. "

Die Adjunk-minister het voorts Sese die SA regering moet aanspreekl.i.khe'id aanvaar vir wat die BSB sedoen of beplan het, aangesien dit 'n deel was van die SAW.

Op 'n vraag ofhy dink dat die BSB nog in Namibie bedrywig is, het Tjongarero gese hy glo dat die top strulctuur reeds terug is in SA, maar daar kan 'n hele klomp staatsampte­nare wees wat by 'n organisasie soos die BSB betrek is.

'''n Mens wonder hoeveel is en hoeveel is nie, en jy kan taamlik kriewelrig voel wanneer jy in geboue beweeg."

Hy het gese die inligting wat Botes en andere tot dusver uitgelap het, eindig vir hom te kort aangesien die

BSB-bedrywighede baie moontlik insluit dat mense in die Namibiese staatsdiens ingesmokkel is wat steeds vir die BSB werk.

"Dit kan wees dat hulle hier ronddwaal en die beleid van versoe­ning kan beduiwel in die land," het Tjongarero bygevoeg.

Hy het verwys na die "obstruktiewe houding" van sekere staatsampte­nare en gevra of daar nie moontlik 'n goedgeorkestreerde plan is om die Swapo-regering te destabiliseer en lam te Ie nie.

Vol gens Tjongarero is dit onlogies dat die BSB nie uitgewerkhet wat die "tweede fase" sal wees indien hulle nie Swapo van 'n oorwinning kon keernie.

Hy het voorts gevra of aI die onthullings oor die BSB, wat sy ten­takels diep in Afrika en tot selfs in Europa sehad het, en miljoene rande tot hul beskikking gehad het, dit verregaande maak dat Swapo aanspraak daarop maak dat spioene gestuur is om Swapo- en Plan-Ieiers in die buiteland te vermoor en in­ligting deur te voer na Suid-Afrika.

DANNY Tjongarero ... was ook op BSB-moordlys. Hy wonder of die BSB-bdrywighede in Namibie beeindig is?

CCN-afvaardiging se: · . " ,

~ OOS-Duitse kinders mooi en vet' NIKS kon gevind word wat 'n aanduiding gee dat Namibiese kinders in Oos-Duitsland versteek word of dat hulle kinders van gewese Swapo-gevangenes is nie.

Die bevinding is gemaak deur 'n afvaardiging van die Namibiese Raad van Kerke (CCN), wat laat verlede week van Oos-Duitsland teruggekeer het nadat beweringe omtrent Namibiese kinders in die Oos-Eu­ropese land gemaak is.

In die proses is Swapo se naam vui! gesmeer deur die DTA-mond­stuk, Times of Namibia. Die Minis­ter van Plaaslike Qwerhede en Behuising, dr. Libertine Amathila, het reeds die gerugte ontken en hulle Wat daarvoor verantwoordelik is, gemaan om liefs hul aandag en sorg uit te spreek teenoor die honderde kindersplaaslik wat weens armoede verhonger.

Die adjunk-redakteur van die Rooms-Katolieke nuusbrief, Omukuni, William Mbangula, en pastoor N geno Nakanlhela, hoof van die sosiale en diakoniale dienste van die Evangeliese Lutherse Kerk (ELK), het Vrydag 'n mediakonferensie by die hoofkantore van die CCN gehou om hul bevindings bekend tc maak.

Die bevindings is ook vervat in 'n media-verklaring.

Volgens die verldaring het 'n afvaar­diging, wat deur die:, ho<.?f~:kre~~

van die CCN, dr. Abisai Shejavali, gestuur is, pas 'n besoek van agt dae na Oos-Duitsland afgesluit "om ons mense in Oos-Duitsland te gaan bedien en ondersoekin te stel na hul omstan­dighede en toestand".

Die ondersoek het die afvaardig­ing geneem na twee opvoedkundige instellings, die Skool van Vriendskap in Strassfurt (Bezirk Magdeburg) en . die Kinderheim in Bellin (Bezirk Schwerin), waar die Namibiese kin­ders versorg word.

"By die Skool van V riendskap het ons 291 Namibiese kinders tussen die ouderdomme ses en 17 gevind. Daar was 16 Namibiese onderwysers.

"By die Kinderheim het ons 134 voor-skoolse kinders en drie babas gekry, wat in Oos-DUitsland gebore is en wie se moeders opvoedkundi­ges is. Daar is 13 Namibiese opvoedkundiges onder leiding van mev. Johanna Iyambo," lui die verklaring.

Die CCN-afvaardiging getuig voorts dat dit vir hulle aangenaam is om te vertel dat die kinders wat hulle gev­ind het, "in 'n ihdrukwekkende en bevredigende toe stand verkeer".

"Die kinders geniet hul basiese .,.-' -...... - '; ., .. -~ ~.

menseregte,. soos vervat in die grond­wet van die Republiek van Namibie, naam1ik die reg tot lewe en om bes­kerm te word, die reg om opgevoed te word asook om mediese sorg te ontvang,. die reg om hul godsdien­stige vryheid uit te leef en die reg om 'n naam en ouer-sorg te he. "

Volgens die verklaring opereer die twee instellings volgens Oos-Duitsland se kinderhuise en skool-programme met bykomende Namibiese inspraak.

"Sover as wat ons vasgestel het, kon geen bewyse hoegenaamd gev­ind word wat aandui dat die kinders daar geneem is om versteek te word of dat bulle kinders van gewese Swapo­gevangenes is nie. Ons het somrnige weeskinders gekry wie se ouers gedurende die bevrydingstryd gesterf het (byvoorbeeld by Cassinga) en ook kinders wie se ouers nog lewe, wat somrnige van die leierskap van Swapo insluit," het die ondersoek­span bevind.

In die verklaring word ook dank en waardering uitgespreek teenoor die Oos-Duitse bevolking, hul regering, die Solidariteitskornitee van Oos­Duitsland, die Federasie van Protes­tantse kerke in die land en aile vrede­liewende orgaaisasies, regerings en individue vanoor die wereld wat die Namibiese yolk oor die 'jare byges­taanhet .

ButchReynolds, who set the world400-metre record of34,29 seconds in 1988, competed in the 200 on Saturday to work on his speed. He was timed 20,60 seconds, and won with little difficulty.

IAN WRIGHT SHINES ATWEMBLEY * MANCHESTER UNITED 3

* CRYSTAL PALACE 3 MARK Hughes scored eight minutes from the end of extra time in the English F.A. Cup fmal to earn Manchester United a 3·3 draw ' against Crystal Palace at Wembley on Saturday and force a replay.

Underdogs Palace looked to be heading for a ' sensational win when substitute Ian Wright scored twice after coming on in the 70th minute.

But Welsh international Hughes' goal saved United's blushes and set up a replay at Wembley next Thurs­day.

Hughes had put United 2-1 ahead in the 62nd minute but Palace took the match into extra-time with a goal from Wright in the nnd minute, three minutes after he had come on.

Wright put Palace 3-2 ahead just ' two minutes into extra-time but the London club, in their first season back in the First Division for eight years, could not hold on.

Defender Gary 0 'Reilly, wOO scored a similar goal against Liverpool in the semi-final, rose above England defender Gary Pallister to meet Phil Barber's 19th minute free-kick.

United goalkeeper Jim Leighton failed to get to it and Steve Bruce's despairing lunge only helped the ball into the roof of the net.

United, apPearing in an F.A. Cup final for a record-equaling 11th time, continued to attack., probing for

weaknesses down the wings and fir­ing in a series of crosses.

The equaliser came from a cross on the right in the 35th minute.

Brian McClair picked up a ball which had skidded across the goal­mouth, swung it back to the far post, where England captain Bryan Rob­son headed it down and defender John Pemberton's foot deflected it into the net.

United could have taken the lead three minutes later when McClair was given a free header in front of goal but he pushed it wide.

In the second-half in front of the sellout 80 OOO-crowd - all seated for the first time in Wembley - United continued to play in their elegant style and began to dominate the match.

They went ahead for the first time when Andy Thorn's attempted clear­ance hit Neil Webb and rebounded across goal for Hughes to hammer the ball past goalkeeper Nigel Mar­tyn.

Hughes had another chance two minutes later when his downward header was cleared off the goal-l41e by defender Andy Thorn and United

looked to be on the way to victory. But Wnght. playing his first match.

,since breaking the same leg twice,in the space of three months, shocked United when he made it 2-2 soon after coming on as a substitute for Phil Barber. '

He turned England full-back Gary Pallister twice before firing under Leighton.

Pallister damaged his ankle during the match and United manager Alex Ferguson said he would be doubtful for the replay. '

Robson had a chance to win the match for United eight minutes from full-time when he got behind the Palace defence to meet a cross from Webb. But his header struck tre bottom of the post.

10 extra-time Wright sent the Pal­ace supporters ecstatic when he scored his second goal after 92 minutes, prodding home a cross from John Salako.

Palace held on grimly and looked like overcoming United just as they did Li verpool in the semi -final- until Hughes popped up again.

Latching on to a through-ball, Hughes slipped between two defend­ers and slotted the ball home to give his side another chance to win their first trophy for five years.
