\n

Karas governor Bernadus Clinton Swartbooi has reiterated Government’s policy of not interfering in traditional chieftaincy disputes, and added that power struggles are not conducive to socio-economic growth.<\/p>\n

Swartbooi made these remarks while addressing the Haboben and Kharo!Oan Nama tribes under the Blouwes Traditional Authority (BTA) at Blouwes on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Haboben and Kharo!Oan tribes are embroiled in a succession dispute sparked by the death of the late Chief Hans Titus in 2007.<\/p>\n

The governor’s remarks preceded the controversial inauguration of Dawid Cassius Gertze as the Haboben tribe’s chief on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Swartbooi urged communities to look for amicable solutions to solve their chieftaincy disputes.<\/p>\n

Swartbooi rejected the “divide and rule” tactics of some political and traditional leaders as unacceptable.<\/p>\n

“Division is for weak people, and unity is power. The divide-and-rule tactics rearing its ugly head in the Karas Region is not acceptable,” said Swartbooi.<\/p>\n

Urging communities to desist from alcohol and drug abuse, Swartbooi urged them to seize opportunities created by the “ballooning economy” in the region to improve their living standards.<\/p>\n

He added that Government is determined and committed to drive socio-economic initiatives to the benefit of the entire Namibian nation.<\/p>\n
