The minister of works and transport, Alpheus !Naruseb, this week introduced the new Roads Authority and Namibia Ports Authority board members.

That followed a month-long consultative process, he said.

!Naruseb said he would make himself available at all times to the board members to ensure that they were in a position to adequately perform their board duties.

“I trust in your competencies and I believe that myself and all other functionaries are only a call away. Don't decide for yourself that the minister is busy, we want to make a success of our responsibilities,” !Naruseb told the board members.

“Your challenges are quite daunting and challenging. I expect that you will be equal to the task and apply your God-given abilities to move the Roads Authority, the Namibia Ports Authority and government.”

!Naruseb urged the board members to work closer together in the execution of their duties. “I am looking at you to help us to get the wagon across the river. We need each other and must complement each other's efforts,” said !Naruseb.

The new Roads Authority board consists of Brian Katjaerua as chairperson and Erna Motinga, Lily Brandt and Clive Smith as non-executive members.

The new Namport board consists of Gerson Hinda as chairperson while Jennifer Comalie returns for a third time. Also joining the board are Evangelina Hamunyela, Johannes Kangandjera and Mbingee Hindjou.

According to !Naruseb, the appointments were done in consultation with the ministry of public enterprises.

The role of deputy chairperson on both boards is still to be filled while a fifth member to the Roads Authority board is still to be appointed.
