Fighters fail to report at assembly pOints - may be deterred by 'interrogation' tactics

UN personnel and South African security forces were relaxed at assembly points yesterday; although by nightfall Untag officials were reportedly 'jumpy'. By late last night Swapo fighters had failed to report at the border points, apparently deterred by the prospect of 'interrogation' • still a subject of dispute between Untag and South African officials.

BY LATE last night Swapo fighters had still failed to turn up at any of the nine assembly points on the Namibia/Angola border, and observers attributed this to demands by the security forces that the com batants be interrogated, photographed and fingerprinted when presenting themselves. Meanwhile the United Nations has been harshly criticised by diplomats and soldiers for its handling of the guerrilla withdrawal. " If you ever wanted to keep Swapo away then this was the way to do it" a senior diplomat told Reuters.

Swapo President, Mr Sam Nujoma, the time of going to press whether the confirmed yesterday that guerrillas men were in fact insurgents, and were returning to Angola, but were whether they were about to present avoiding the UN -monitored assem- themselves voluntarily, and had merely bly points, agreed to by South Africa, requested a UN 'pickup'.

2 Thursday AprIl 13 1989

Who are SA

citizens and who are not?

MR STOFFEL Botha, South African Minister of Home Affairs and Communications, has issued a press statement concerning citizenship arrangements for Namibian independence. The somewhat complicated statement lists the provisions of a Bill, introduced in the South African Parliament yesterday.

The verbatim text of the statement is as follows:

"The Administrator General of SW A requested the Government of South Africa on March I, 1989 to indicate, as soon as possible, what citizenship arrangements would be in force for SWA from 1 April,1989.

"The Government has given in­tensive and sympathetic considera­tion to this request, and in the proces, aspirations, interests and practical implications were borne in mind.

"A Bill which makes provision for the following arrangements has been introduced in Parliament:

A. A South African citizen born in SWA and who had ordinary resi­dence in SWA on 1 April 1989 or who took up ordinary residence there between 1 April 1989 and the date of attainment of independence, retains his South African citizenship on the attainment of independence, provided that at least one of his parents or grandparents was born in the RSA.

B . A South African ci tizen born in SW A, whose verifiable ordinary place of residence is elsewhere than in SW A, retains his South African citi­zenship, even if he is temporarily seconded to SW A for any period between 1 April 1989 and the date of attainment of independence, irrespec­tive of w here his parents or grandpar-ents were born . . •

C. A South African citizen by naturalisation, in other words , one who was not born in either SW A or the RSA, who is ordinary resident in SWA on April I 1989 or between 1 April 1989 and the date of independ­ence, forfeits his SA citizenship on the attainment of independence by SWA.

D. A South African citizen born in the Republic retains his SA citizen­ship even if heis ordinarily resident in SW A, unless of course he, by voluntary and formal action, adopts another citizenship.

Persons who lost their SA citizen­ship due to the above arrangementsand thereafter takes up ordinary residence in the RepUblic, will after an uninter­rupted period of six months ordinary residence immediately prior to the date of the application fornaturalisa­tion, qualify for a certificate of natu­ralisation in the RepUblic, provided that they also , during the four years immediately preceding the date of their application, resided in the Republic for at least two years: In all other cases the normal requirements for naturalisation shall apply".

THE NAMIBIAN

'Give back the land' NNF SAYS AT FIRST PUBLIC RALLY

THE Namibia National Front (NNF) aimed at a " principled unity" and would seek for "supreme mandate" from Namibians to form the first "black majority-rule government" for Namibia.

The chairman cf newly-revived front, Mr Vekuii Rukoro, spoke on the NNF at the first public meeting held in Rehoboth.

The basic aimofNNF,he said, was to "give back the land to the people' , .

"We are one group in this cam­paign which has resolved to fear­lessly and aggressively advance the cause of the colonised, the deprived and disadvantaged sections of the Namibian society," Mr Rukoro claimed.

Although the front emphasised to return of the land to its ociginal owners, NNF believed in multi-party consti­tutional system, the chairman said.

He further stated that the NNF believed in peoples' democracy and not in "presidents for life".

The NNF rejected tribalism and racism. "To us , ethnicity and racism can never be a legitimate basis of government and, consequently, we reject the politically and economi­cally nonsensical notion of a sover­eign Republic of Rehoboth," Mr

Mr. Vekuii Rukoro

Rukoro stated. The revivt«! front, according to its

chairman, was committed to "safe­guard individual rights" of all Namibians. ,

More so the NNF did not have any guarantees for the whites in this country, he said.

On the land question, the chairman said that independence would be meaningless unless the land was re­turned to its original owners .

The NNF in the first five years after independence would reject any form of foreign aid, but would en­courage foreign investment on the basis of "partnership provided it clearly serves the developnental needs of the country," Mr Rukoro said.

Mr Rukoro further attacked the press and said it was owned and run by "white liberals or white monop­oly capi.tal" .

He said that the "white liberal press" had its own "reformist agenda" which was in conflict with the national aspirations of the people, which were' 'transformist in nature" .

He urged the Administrator Gen­eral and the United Nations Security Council for these newspapers to ei­ther "register as party political propa­ganda handouts" or that they should conform to the ' 'minimum standards of fairness and objective reporting" .

'NANTU BREAKS ETHNIC

RRIERS' New union says it enjoys popular support

THE Namibia National Teachers Union (NANTU) was the " only national teachers union" wbicb enjoyed popular support among teachers across ethnic barriers, it was reiterated in a press statement of the newly- founded union recently.

NANTU was reacting to a number of allegations levelled against the union which was still experiencing birth pangs. The union is the only national union in the country.

The union was formed as a result of experience of the oppressed teach­ers and would " encourage real na­tional unity" the statement read. .

The statement rejected and con­demned plans by the " colonial administration" whereby individu­als and existing teachers unions were used to form a teachers union which was to oppose NANTU.

"NANTU welcomes the positive moves by the Ovambo Teachers Association and Kavango Teachers Association to disband to enable their members to join N antu," the state­ment said.

In the statement the union rejected the " reactionary" moves by "poorly supported ethnic unions" to form a new teachers union.

The existing teachers unions met recently in Tsumeb to discuss issues around the formation of a "national teachers union" .

"The reason for the urgent meet­ing to discuss the issue for the forma­tion of another union, shOOd be viewed not as a sincere desire for unity, but merely as an effort to counteract the genuine unity achieved with the launching of NANTU," the state­ment said.

The President ofNANTU, Mr Marco Hausiku, said that his organisation did not sent representatives to the meeting.

He said that there was information that the colonial administration was engineering the formation of a new union which would counteract NANTU.

Attendance of the meeting would have meant going against the deci­sion taken at the launching by the rank and file, that the existing unions should disband and join the national union. .

~A - President of NANTU

(Namibia National Teacbers Union),

Mr. Marco Hausiku

ATIENTION ALL READERS We would like to know your views and opinions about The Namibian

The statement further expressed its strong condemnation of the SW A Police force interference with a peace­ful march held on April 1 by the workers. "We the teachers, forming part and parcel of the working com­munity consider this as an infringe­ment on our freedom of association," the statement said.

The statement also condemned with "utter disrespect it deserves" the attack on Swapo fighters. This was to jeopardise the process of a peaceful political change in Namibia, NANTU said in the statement.

Please use the space provided below to give us an idea of what you would like to read about in the pages of this newspaper and

post back to us at P.O.Box 20783 Windhoek 9000.

We want YOUR views on presentation of news! NAME: ________________________________ _ COMMENTS: ______________________________ __

N ANTU had " first hand informa­tion " about the shooting of Swapo supporters between Tsumeb and Oshivelo on the return home from a rally in Windhoek that it was part of the "colonial elimination of the Namibian people", the statement read.

The union called on the Set-Tetary General of the United Nations to deploy the Untag forces immediately and to confme South African sol­diers to their bases.

In conclusion the statement said that the union would work together with all progessive forces to speed up the independence of Namibia through resolution 435 .

West German partners

join Navachab

CDM announced yesterday that the Navachab gold mine near Karibib is now being developed as a joint venture between the origninal partners and Metall Mining Corporation of Canada, the mining subsidiary of MetallgeseUschaft AG of West Germany.

N avachab' s development will cost nearly R90 million. It will start pro­-duction in October this year, proc­essing some 750 000 tons a year to produce about I 900 kilos of gold.

At present prices, this will be worth about R60 million a year in foreign exchange to Namibia. It will employ only about 200 miners - but these, with their families, will add about 1 000 people to Karibib' s tiny popula­tion.

Development of the open-cast mine started in 1987. In charge of it ' is Erongo Mining and Development Company, of which South Africa' s Anglo American Group owns two­thirds, and CDM one-third.

In the joint venture, Erongo will hold 70% of N avachab, Metall Min­ing 20%, and Rand Mines Windhoek Exploration 10%. Rand Mines Wind­hoek had the original prospecting grant, and in the deal with Erongo got the right to keep an interest in the mine.

According to Mr Abel Gower of CDM, Metallgesellschaft AG was looking aroWld worldwide to increase its mining intersts', and, bearing in mind the German-Namibianhostori­cal link, approached Anglo to obtain a share in the Navachab project.

The deal had been under discus­sion since 1987, and has only now been fmalised.

Anglo favours a non-South Afri­can interest in the project, Mr Gower explained, as a way of spreading the risk, and giving an independent government more parties with which to negotiate any changes.

435 BRINGS HOPE AND

GRIEF THE implementation of Resolution 435 bad brougbt "bope, sadness and briefat one and tbe same time for the Namibian people" said tbe Namibia Islamic Movement in a press release yesterday.

"Resolution 4 35 should be seen as basically a compromise mechanism fraught with many pitfalls for the colonised people of Namibia in the onward struggle for independence and self-determination" the state­ment said.

These pitfalls led progressive movements " to work under serious constraints with little margins for manoeuvre" .

Another 'serious indictment' against the Plan, the Islamic Movement said, was the fact that it had been adopted for implementation on April I this year 'withoutnot a single representa­tive of the Namibian colonised people participating in the process' .

The Namibia Islamic Movement offered heartfelt condolences to those who had lost their lives in the conflict in the north, and strongly condemned the inhuman treatment of the 'dead martyrs of the N arnibian nation whose bodies were left strewn on the battle­field, an<;i those buried in unmarked mass g~ves and those whose bodies were strapped to army vehicles and left exposed in the open".

THE NAMIBIAN Thursday April 13 1989 3

Still restriction of movement in

Caprivi region Restrictions on people's move­ment between the Caprivi towns of Bagani and Katima Mulilo have not been lifted despite the implementation of Resolution 435.

Because of these restrictions, a man endend up in gaol on Monday after a heated exchange with sol­diers manning the control point at Bagani. ,

Kavango resident Mr Nimrod Muremi was travelling with four other people to KatirnaMulilo on Monday when they were stopped at the Bagani check point at about 4pm.

The soldiers said the check point was closed and that the travellers were not going to be allowed to pass through.

435 was being implemented. This developed into an argument

between Mr Muremi and the soldiers who then decided they would detain Mr Muremi while letting his col­leagues go on.

The party chose not to separate so drove back to a nearby shop where a determined Mr Muremi tried to hitch a lift on a Brewery truck, hiding amongst the truck's cargo.

The truck was let through the check point but two women - thought to be the wives of Battalion 32 members­spotted Mr Muremi and informed the gate guards.

The truck was stopped and the occupants taken to the police station for questioning. Eventually every­one bar Mr Muremi were released.

THE WAITING GAME - Soldiers and the UN wait for Plan combatants to report to border monitoring posts. The SWA Police wanted to "interview" combatants as they passed through the checkpoints.

Mr Muremi asked why people were still subjected to the same old ','oppressive" rules at the time when

Mr Muremi was held until yester­day when he was released without charge.

Interrogation of Plan - continued from Page 1 Mr Pienaar, in a joint statement

with UN Special Representative Martti Ahtisaari, said that PLAN fighters would be "interrogated" to deter­mine the number of Swapo "infil­trators", their whereabouts and the location and nature of their weapons.

The assembly point operation came as a result of last weekend's tripar­tite meeting on the Mount Etjo game­farm outside Otjiwarongo, where an 'agreement was signed between Pre­toria, Luanda and Havana.

Mr Smuts said: "One would have thought such a material factor would be embodied in the (Mount Etjo) Declaration. ' ,

He added that the matter of' inter­rogating' Swapo fighters once they had handed themselves over' 'could not possibly be reasonably implied in the agreement".

Mr Smuts questioned Mr Pienaar's ability to recognise the fact that people had the right to remain silent until they appeared before a court of law.

The issue of interrogating com­batants who handed themselves over at UN points was "questionable, to

say the least". "What happens if they demand

lawyers? Will legal counsel be avail­able if these people are interrogated ... and will the UN be present during these intem>gation sessions?" he said.

Mr Smuts pointed out that Koevoet had a history of assaulting people during interrogation.

"There are serious and documented cases of assault in previous Koevoet interrogations of PLAN fighters and others," Mr Smuts said.

He emphasised that the Swapo guerrillas who made use of the UN assembly points would not, in terms ' of the agreement, be considered as detainees or prisoners. ,

Presumably interrogation could only take place if the fighters were arrested under legislation such as Proclamation AG9 or Section 6 of the Terrorism Act.

Meanwhile, reports have indicated that Mr Ahtisaari denies ever agree­ing that Swapo fighters should be interrogated after handing themselves over.

Show the V-sign, or else' . .. . LA WYERS confirmed yesterday that they will be taking up several cases or security rorce harassment against civilians In the Oshlkuku area.

A legal source confinned that complaints had been laid against members of the security forces who were threatening residents with assault if they failed to display the V -sign of the DT A.Apparently some residents of the region had already been beaten up for refusing to show the DTA sign.The lawyer said the matter would be taken up with United Nations personnel and with the SWA Territory Force.A recent application to prevent political intimidation by the security forces resulted in an out of court settlement, whereby thepolice and army agreed to order their members to desi st.

It appears that th is agreement has not been adhered to.

Soldiers given marching orders:

I o vote for

THE OFFICER Commanding 91 Brigade, Colonel FA. Botes, has appealed to his brigade members living both in South Africa or Na­mibia to make specific arrangements for registering and voting in the coming elections in Namibia on November 1.

In a circular to all members of the unit, Colonel Botes says registering and voting will be conducted through­out most towns in Namibia and that for those members of the brigade who live in South Africa, all it means is that they can travel up to Ari­amsvlei, Aroab or Vioolsdrif for the stated purposes .

The brigade is due to be "demo­bilised" as of May 13 in terms of resolution 435.

Colonel Botes tells his men that in .order to qualify for voting in the coming elections they have to be Namibian by birth or have to have lived in Namibia for a year.

Residency documents are easily obtainable from the Department of

By Rajah Munamava

Civic Affairs and Manpower, says the colonel.

The question of voting age is still being discussed, continues the colo­nel, and soldiers should be on the look -out in the media for a decision on this matter.

"Even if you live in South Africa, remember that blood is thicker than water. South West was good for us . South West ought to be able to de­pend on our support," declares Colo­nel.

The army colonel discloses that 91 brigade will be "demilitarised"

I

as of May 13 and its command struc­ture disbanded.

On that date, all weapons must be handed back. Failing to do so could be a criminal offence, but this did not apply to uniforms.

South African troops from Bri­gade 91 will be posted to other camp duties in the Republic while those in Walvis Bay will be transferred to the Commando unit.

Should the brigade be re-activated after independence, all its force members will return to its ranks.

Colonel BOles says he is convinced that all brigade members will work together to ensure that the country is placed in the hands of a Christian and democratic government.

"I appeal to all of you to partici­pate in the election campaign which begins on ]Wle 26. Make sure you are registered as a voter." He said he would do the same.

THE BRITISH Anti Apartheid Movement (AAM) this week sent a solidarity message to the Namibian National Students Organisation on the eve of the­call for a stayway by the stu­dent organisation.

The AAM message signed by Executive Member Mr Mike Terry said the movement fully supported the Nanso demands behind the stay­away and in particular the call for the full and immediate deployment of UNT AG forces and the immediate

demobilisation of all South African Forces ,

" We share your grave concern at the situation in the north and belive that these steps can and must be taken by the United Nations to stop the bloodshed and keep the UN Plan on the rails.

" We also believe that it is vital that S wapo is a full party in all future negotiations and discussions on the implementation of the UN Plan."

The AAM said Nanso's condemna­tion of the Bri tish Government's role in recent events was well placed.

" We too have argued strongly in Britain against the UNTAG cuts. Events have shown us all to be right and we had to listen to lie upon lie by Mrs Thatcher in parliament last week.

" We assure you that our support of your struggle will not lessen and that the role of our Prime Minister and our government will in fact only strengthen our resolve and that of the British people to build support for Swapo in the elctions and to assist the struggle for independence in your country in whatever ways we can.,t

Deur Pius Dunaiski

STUDENTE aan die Khom~ OmderwyskoUege bet uit frustrasie vir die Namibia Council of Students (Nacos) al bul Nacos-T­bempies in die vuur gegooi en verbrand nadat daar besluit is om weg te breek van die studente-Iiggaam om by Nanso aan te sluit.

Hierdie inligting is gister deur 'n srudent aan die kollege.in Khomasdal aan Focus verskaf.

Volgens hom was die kollege by Nacos geaffilieer, maar die eerste probleme het gekom nadat daar vasgestel is dat die kollege se planne om in Suid-Afrika aan 'n Inter-kol­lege-toemooi deel te neem, in die wiele gery sal word.

Die moeder-liggaam in SA, die South African Tertiary Institutions Sports Association (Satisa), het

aangedui dat die Khomasdalse kol­lege nie welkom sal wees indien hulle nog by Nacos is nie.

Volgens die student is daar bots­ings bepalings in die twee studente­organisasies se grondwette. Satisa bedryf sport op die grondslag van nie-rassigheid.

"Ons het besluit om weg te doen met N acos juis omdat ons op die vooraand staan om in Junie aan die Inter-kolege-toemooi deel te gaan neem," het die student gister gese.

Weermag gee leiding oor politiek

Politieke Redaksie DIT was steeds 'n ope vraag vir Namibiers of die SA Weermag kniediep in die politiek staan en selfs sover gaan om alles uit die boek te gebruik om die komende verkiesing ingevolge Res. 435 te belnvloed.

Die Weermag het hard gestry ondanks herhaalde beweringe. mallT die kat is nou behoorlik uit die sak ' , gelaat met 'n opspraakwekkc:nde brief. Die brief het glo uit die kantore van die Weermag geglip en is gistermid­dag reeds by 'n media-konferensie deur adv. Bryan o 'Linn van die NPP-435 aan verslagggewers voorgelees.

Volgens 'n afskrif in besit van Focus slaan die deemis van 'n kolonel F.A. Botes vir sy troepies wat in die ontbindingsproses weg gaan plek­plek deur.

Maar die interessante gedeelte is sy paragraaf sewe, wal as volg lees:

"Nou is dit so dat die demilitaris­ering van die brigade (die brief is op 'n briefhoof van die 91 Brigade geskryf) en eenhede vir almal van ons 'n emosionele belewenis is. Ons is almal egter Suidwesters (!) en lede van 'n trotse brigade.

"Ek weet dus dat ons almal sam saamwerk • . hard en slim werk om hierdie land vir 'n Christen-demokra­tiese bestel te behou. Ek versoek dan nou ook almal van julIe om deel te neem aan die verkiesingsveldtog wat op 26 Junie 1989 begin (Neem ken­nis. nie verkiesing nie. maar verkies­ingsveldtog . (Red.)

"Maak seker dat jy registreer as

kieser en dat jy weI stem. Al woon jy tans in die RSA. vra ekjulle spesifiek om maasr reelings te tref om twee maal na SW Ate reis - eers om te kom registreeren daamaomop 1 Nov 1989 te stem. Ek gaan dit self doen (Die kolonel het petrolgeld. dis gewisl)

"Registrasie en stemming vind in alle dorpe plaas. dws jy hoef net tot by Ariamsvlei. Aroab of Vioolsdrif te ry. Stemgeregtigheid is gebaseer op gebore as Suidwester of langer as eenjaarhierwoonagtigofwoonagtig gewees. (Dit blyk dat die kolonel die verkiesingskonsep help skryf het.)

Die SW A identiteitsdokument sal sake vir jou baie vergemaklik. In die verband skakel gerus met Burger­sake en Mannekrag in Windhoek. Die kwessie van ouderdomsbeperk­ing is nog onderhandelbaar. Hou die medi dop in die verband . AI woon jy in die RSA - onthou. bloed is dikker as water. Suidwes was goed vir ons -Suidwes behoort nou op ons steun te kan staatmaak."

Adv. O· Linn het gister na aanleid­ing van die brief versoek dat die AG eers die konsep-verlciesingswetgewing in die media moet p laas sod at be­langhebbendes geleentheid kry om die bepalings te bestuderen insette te lewa, alvorens dit g~ulgea woni.

NANSO bet vandeesweek 'n vriend in .Khomasdal gekry toe studente van die Khomasdalse Onderwyskollege van Nacos weggebreek bet om by die progressiewe studente-liggaam aan te sluit. Die Khomasdalse studente bet bul Nacos-T -bempies gaan uitbrand om aile bande sterk af te breek. Op die foto is studente van Nanso afgeneem tydens 'n byeenkoms.

Stem en hardloop INDIEN 'n beoogde wetgewing oor Suid-Afrikaanse burgerskap van die inwoners van Namibie deurgevoer word, sal dit 'n k10mp mense in staat stel om te kan stem in die Res. 435-verkiesing en dan bul rug op die land te draai.

SA burgers, wat nie in Namibie of SA gebore is nie. en in die land woon. sal hul SA burgerskap tip die dag van die onafhanklikheid van Namibie verloor.

56 lees een van die bepalings van 'n nuwe konsep-wet wat gister in Kaapstad in die SA parlement inge­dien is. 'n Verklaring deur die SA departement van binnelandse sake wat die bree trekke van die nuwe wet uitspel. is ook gistermiddag in Wind­hoek aan die media bekend gemaak.

Dit volg nadat die Administrateur­generaal, adv. Louis Pienaar. vroeer sy regering in Pretoria versoek het om s6 gou as moontlik reelings te tref oor die kwessie van burgerskap.

Waamemers het dit dat vaal blankes besorg is oor hul posisie rondom burgerskap omdat baie 'n houding van "wag-en-sien" openbaar. Indien Swap<> met 'n groat meerderheid wen en dinge Iyk nie te below end nie. wil hulle die hasepad vat SA toe. maar weet dat hulle daar nog volle burger­regte geniet.

"Die regering het intensiewe en sirnpatieke oorweging aan hierdie versoek gegee en in die proses is aspirasies, belange en praktiese implikasies in gedagte gehou." lui die verklaring.

Die nuwe wet maak voorsiening vir die volgende:

""n SA burger wat in Namibie gebore is en op 1 April in die land woonagtig is. of intussen voor mafhan­k1ikheid hiematoe trek. sal by onafhan­klikheid hul SA burgerskap behou. indien ten minste een van ouers of voorouers in SA gebore is;

... 'n SA burger wat in Narnibie gebore is. maar wat nie in die land woonagtig is nie. behou ook sy SA burgerskap. al is hy na die Gebied gesekondeer virenige tydperk tussen I April en die dag van onafhanklikheid, ongeag war sy ouers gebore is;

... ·n SA burger wat in SA gebore is, behou sy SA burgerskap al is hy in Namibie woonagtig. tensy hy vry­willig besluit om formeel daarvan afstand te doen.

Indien mense weens bogenoemde reelings hul burgerskap[ verloor, sal

eers ses maande in SA moet gaan woon voordat hulle kwaliflSeer om 'n sertiflkaat van naturalisasie te bekom. Diegene sal egter ten minste twee jaar in SA moes gewoon het in die vier jaar voor hul aansoek in die verband.

In alle ander gevalle bly die vere­istes vir naturalisasie dieselfde.

Bewegingsreg op skrefie

DIE president van die Pan Mricanist Congress (pAC), mnr. Zephania Motbopeng, en sy vrou, Urbania, is deur die Suid-Afrikaanse regering paspoorte toegestaan om oorsee te reis.

Volgens 'n berig in die Sowetan het mnr. Mothopeng vandeesweek gese hy is gelukkig dat hy nou 'n geleentheid gegee word om mediese hulp oorsee te gaansoek.

Hy is verlede jaar in Novembernajare in aanhouding vrygelaatDie paspoort sal hom nou in staat stel om Brittanje en Amerika te besoek op 'n datum wat nog deur sy gesin vasgestel sal word.

Mnr. Mothopeng se vorige aansoeke vir 'n paspoort was altyd deur die SA regering afgekeur. •

Volgens hom is hul paspoorte vir drie maande geldig. wat hulle in staat sal stel om ook ander lande te besoek. Hy het nie die moontlikheid dat hy intemasionale leiers sal ontrnoet. uitgesluit nie.

Mnr. Mothopeng. wat reeds jare siek is. was al een van die nominasies vir die VV se toekenning vir vrede.

Die verwagting is dat hy ook 'n spesiale sessie van die VV sal toespreek. wat die naweek in New York tot eer van hom gehou word.

NPP·435 on Swapo bases

IT is clear that no formal agreement was ever reached permitting Swapo to have bases inside Namibia, according to the Windhoek-based group NPP 435.

This was said in a statement re­leased yesterday by its leader, Mr Bryan O'Linn.

He pointed out that the then Secre­tary General of the United Nations, Mr Kurt Waldheim, said in a written report to the Security Council on February 26,1979, that Swapo's armed forces would be 'restricted to base at designated locations inside Namibia' , as well as to bases in neighbouring countries, when Resolution 435 was implemented.

Mr o 'Linn said that South Africa and the internal parties had objected strongly to this, as a departure from the plan, and that these provisions were never confirmed by the Secu­rity Council "because they were unacceptable to South Africa" .

Mr O'Linn also referred to the Western proposals for a settlement, and a report by the Secretary General on August29, 1978, as hav{ng failed to indicate where Swapo forces would be confined to base after implemen­tation. Both the proposals and the report were accepted and confirmed in Resolution 435 .

Mr O'Linn said that in 1983, the UN chief said in a written report to the Secretary General that all out­standing points of contention had been" settled.

"After intensive negotiations in 1988 and 1989, further agreement was reached regarding the question

of bases, in the Geneva Protocol of August 5,1988, and the Brazzaville Protocol of December 13, 1989 ... " and that both of these protocols were accepted by the Security Council in Resolutions 626 and 628 of 1989.

Mr O'Linn said that although Swapo was not a party to these protocols, "the organisation was kept informed of developments" .

Quoting from a statement by Swapo president Sam Nujoma on August 12, 1988, Mr 0 'Linn stressed that it confirmed "that Swapo not only accepted the Geneva Protocol in general, but also explicitly agreed the honour the cessation of hostili­ties from 10 August 1988 .

"In the context of the Geneva Protocol, read together with Mr NUjoma's letter, no credence can be given to the argument that the with­drawal of Swapo's forces should only take place after the formal cease fire has been effected".

Mr O'Linn said that Swapo had never claimed it had existing, identi­fiable bases within Namibia. The crisis had arisen because they insisted that Untag should create such bases for them. It should therefore be clear, he added, why Untag had not made any provision for Swapo bases or assem­bly points within Namibia by April 1.

Mr O'Linn went on to say that Unitag was not equipped to carry out

its assigned tasks on April 1, neither was it able to keep the borders under surveillance, and prevent infiltration.

"Blame should firstly be assigned to the members of UN who dithered over the costs of the Untag operation at a late stage; secondly, fault must be found with those who did not observe the letter and spirit of the settlement plan, in spite of assur­ances. Even if Un tag had been at full strength on April I, it would have been powerless to prevent hostilities of the scale which broke out on that date" .

Faced with what he termed an 'unprecedented crisis' Untag had been obliged to adopt 'unusual and un­popular' methods to rescue the set­tlement plan, Mr O'Linn said.

Mr o 'Linn said it was 'irrational' to excuse violations because Untag was not present in its monitoring capacity; it was equally 'irrespon­sible' to accuse Untag and Mr Ahti­saari himself, of partiality towards SA.

Swapo had made a ' substantial and decisive contribution' towards the realisation of the ideals of free­dom, but the fact remained that it had committed a seious error of judge­ment at the inception of implementa­tion of the plan.

The success of the peace process was now dependent on scrupulous observance by all parties of the letter and spirit of all agreements relevant to the process.

Peace brings more Swapo troops than

ever - CP THE peace agreement in Namibia had lead to the greatest incursion of Swapo troops into the territory in 23 years and had s:town without doubt that Swapo could not be trusted, Dr Ferdie Hartzenberg ' (CP Lichtenberg) said yesterday in Parliament.

Speaking in the budget debate he said the CP had wamed the govern­ment that Swapo could not be trusted and events over the past few weeks had shown this to be correct.

Swapo had broken its undertaking to withdraw to behind the 16th paral­lel and its leader, Mr Sam Nujoma, had already stated publicly that if he lost the election he would go back to the bush and continue the war.

Dr Hartzenberg said if the Govern­ment had listened to the CP's warn­ings, the recent tragedy would never have occurred in Namibia. He added that it had only been the action of the CP which had galvanised the Minis­ter of Foreign Affairs, Mr Pik Botha, into stopping Swapo's advance into Namibia.

The Swapo troops had vanished without a trace and had probably mingled with the population and hidden their weapons. It only re­quired a small number of Swapo infiltrators to intimidate the popula­tion and soon its leader would be marching triumphantly into Wind­hoek with catastrophic results for the territory and for South Africa.

He said the Government had prom­ised there would never be a red flag flying in Windhoek but it no longer had a guarantee that this would not happen and recent events had shown this was now most probable. - Sapa.

Kaunda calls on Swapo fighters to withdraw

Kenneth Kaunda

PRESIDENT Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia has called on all Swapo armed forces in Namibia to withdraw to north of the 16th parallel in Angola.

In a telephone interview with the SABC TV, President Kaunda, Chair­man of the Frontline States, was specifically asked whether his call on Swapo forces to return to Angola meant that they should go north of the 16th parallel in terms of agree­ments reached by Angola, Cuba and South Africa.

"Certainly... all Swapo forces should now go back to behind the 16th parallel" Dr Kaunda replied.

President Kaunda was speaking in the wake of talks in Lusaka with Mr Chster Crocker. The talks had cen­tered on the situation in Namibia and Dr Kaunda said they had gone "ex­tremely well" .

He said the fighting in the territory "must stop" ,and the processes lead­ing to Namibian independence must get back on track. He said all the states of Southern Africa had to cooperate to achieve Namibian inde­pendence - and in this South Africa had the "greatest role to play".

He said he wanted to give praise where it was due, "and we don't have much to complain about South Africa's white leaders in this respeet".

South Afri~a, he said, had cooper­ated well on the Namibian issue, and President Kaunda expressed the hope that SA would playa similar role in southern African affairs generally in future. - Sapa.

Untag vehicles to come from abroad

By Mbatjiua Ngavirue

WIDESPREAD fears that Untag's presence in Namibia would give a badly needed economic shot in the arm to the Pretoria apartheid government have been largely dispelled by Mr Abdou Ciss, chief administrative officer of Untag.

Speaking in Windhoek last Friday, Mr Ciss said that Untag had discov­ered that it would be both faster and cheaper to buy the 800 4x4 vehicles and 600 cars it needs directly from Japan and other countries.

The Fifth Committee of the UN has conclud!!d that everything should be done to expedite the delivery of supplies to Untag, including buying from South Africa. But, said Mr Ciss, this has not been done in the case of cars.

The UN offlcal explained that delivery problems had been experi­anced with vehicles from South Af­rica, and that its price structure was such that it was cheaper to buy from Japan.or Germany.

Thoogh South African vcllicles were slightly moo: expensive, he said. Untag might have considered buying some cars there if South African manufac­turers had been able to meet delivery dates.

The F iIth Committee had however also specified that the UN should try to diversify its sources of supply.

"In price terms, the vehicle pur­chase was a huge amount, and obvi­ously many member states said they would like to have a share of it," Mr Ciss said .

Another controversial issue he addressed was that of Untag pur­chases from the SADF. Here again, he said, transactions between Untag and the SADF would be worth far less than had been reported.

It was unlikely that Untag would be buying armoured personnel carri­ers from the SADF, MrCiss added. If they were going to use SADF equip­ment they rent rather than buy it, but no decision had yet been taken in this

" regard. Neither, he said, would Untag rent

SADF or SW ATF bases , though they would pay for "additional costs." This meant for example that where Untag soldiers had to share mess facilities with the SADF, they would pay only for the meals of their troops at that facility.

He confirmed that Untag might in add ition rent items such as tents, beds and tables from the SADF. So

far, he concluded, the SADF had been very co-operative and the rates they charged were far lower than commercial rates.

USSR TO OPEN

WINDHOEK MISSION

UP to 10 Soviet omcials willintially man the Soviet Liaison Mission to be opened soon In Windhoek.

A Soviet diplomat, Mr Pawel Pavlov, said yesterday that the mis­sion would be opened as soon as suitable offices and accommodation were found. He said various offers of accommodation were being consid­ered, but that suitable offices were still needed.

The liaison mission will serve as an official diplomatic mission after Namibia has attained its independ­ence.

Mr Pavlov said the office was part of the Soviet Union's increasing involvement and interest in southern Africa.

He added that his country did not intend opening a diplomatic mission in South Africa until the government had abolished apartheid.

LIVERPOOL BACK ON TOP GOALS by John Bames and John Aldridge gave Liverpool a 2-1 victory at

Millwall on Tuesday night and sent the defending English League champions to the top of the table - for the first time this season - on goal difference from Arsenal.

Liverpool, who play in the F.A. Cup semi-finals next Saturday, won their 11 th game in a row as they rallied after conceding an eighth-minute Danis Salmon goal to take aU three points.

Bames tied it at 21 minutes with a header and Aldridge struck a controver­sial winner four minutes before half-time . .

The Millwall players and fans reacted angrily to the goal, Aldridge's 22nd of the season, claiming John Bames was clearly offside in the build-up. The linesman infact had raised his flag for offside but it was ignored by the referee, who let the goal stand.

Millwall surged forward in the second half and Dean Horrix hit the bar. But the defending champions held out and climbed on to 63 points from 32 gam'es, the same total as Arsenal but with a superior goal difference.

Liverpool and Arsenal meet April 2~ in what could be a championship decider.

At the other end of the First Division, bottom club West Ham's chapces of survival worsened after a 2-1 home defeat against Middlesbrough.

Kevin Keen gave West Ham the lead midway through the fIrst period but Bernie Slaven scored twice in the last six minutes to condemn the Hammers to another loss and keep them six points adrift at the bottom.

NO EEC COLORS SAYS IOC

ATHLETES from the 12 European Economic Community (EEC) countries would mot be allowed to wear the ECC colors alongside their national ones at the 1m Olympic Games, an International Olympic Committee (lOC) official said on Tuesday.

"It would require a change of the (Olympic) charter, and there Is no plan to change It," IOC spokeswoman MlcheUe Verdier said.

Jaques Delors, president of the EEC commission, last week met organizers of the 1992 Winter Games at Albertville, France, and the Summer Games at Barcelona to seek ways of giving the EEC some profile at the events. The officials agreed to study the Idea of having athletes wear the EEC emblem -- 12 gold stars In a field of blue -- and other ways of asserting the EEC's presence.

Delors said the EEC wants to "raise awareness of the European Idea" and "promote sports as a mean of reapprochement" between Its mem­bers.

But Verdier recalled that the IOC charter allows athletes to take part . In Olympics only as representatives of their national Olympic commit­tees.

"The EEC Is not a sports body," she told the associated press from IOC Headquarters. "If they want to ask the IOC, they can. But the charter doesn't provide for this, and It's unlikely the IOC will change Its rules."

France and Spain, the Olympic hosts of 1992, are both EEC mem bers. The year also has special slgntncance as the community's target date for abolishing aU remaining trade barriers between Its members.

COUSINS STILL TOP

'TWO GOALS against Super Kurl Aces at the weekend has given Arcadia's Noel Cousins a one goal lead over Double Action Sundowns' Brian Johnson in ·the Richleigh Shoes leading goalscorers in the NSL's Castle League.

While last season's beaten fmalist, Kevin Mudie of Wits University, netted three goals - including two.spotkicks - to get into the challenge, his teammate, defender Graham Boyle, has remarkably scored four times in two matches - two each against his former team Jomo Midas Cosmos and highly-rated Sundowns - to stay up with the leaders .

Last year's overall winner, Iwisa KaizerChiefs' Shane McGregor, is still in a rut and is way down the list with one goal.

Leading Scorers: 7 - Noel Cousins (Arcadia) 6 - Brian Johnson (Sundowns) 5 -John 'Shoes' Mosheou (Blackpool),Samuel Sikakane (Leeds United) and

Andries Motsoane (Vaal Reefs). 4 - Graham Boyle (Wits University), Andrew Joseph (Cape Town Spurs),

Philemon Masinga (Jomo Midas Cosmos), Sammy Troughton (Sundowns), Geelbooi Masango (Blackpool), Steve Sekano (Moroka Swallows).

THE DRAW for the first leg Ohlsson's Challenge semi-finals to be played at the Kings Park Rugby Stadium in Durban next Sunday, brought smiles on the faces of the team officials, according to Ray­mond Masbao, sportswriter of tbe New Nation.

BP Top Eight champs, Iwisa Kaizer Chiefs, will meet their runners-up, Wits University, in the fIrst match and Orlando Pirates will battle it out with their hoodoo team, Jomo Midas Cosmos, in the main game of the double-header.

The competition, which carries R175 000 prize money, started three years ago to replace the Champion of Champions. It was first won by Kaizer Chiefs in 1987 when they beat Sun­downs 3-1 in the fInal. And last year, SW¥lowns beat hometown neighbours, Arcadia 1-0, to secure the cup.

The Arnakhosi, who have not lost a single match since the I wisa Maize Meal Spectacular at the start of the season, are playing their best foot­ball at the moment and if they main­tain their winning form, they stand a

good chance to add. another cup on their trophy shelf.

Wits have the tendency to lose their cool at times and if they allow their emotions to carry them away, Chiefs could repeat their BP Top Eight victory.

Chiefs, with a string of gifted play­ers to sellect from, could be without their talented midfielder Didi 'Ace' Khuse, who have lost Zambian-born striker Alberth B walya and the free­scoring Mike 'Sporo' Mangena through injury. .

Khuse is likekly to be replaced by the maestro am namesake Ace Ntsoe­lengoe, who recruited him for Chiefs a few years ago.

CELTIC WANT ROBERTS BACK

BLOEMFONTEIN'S Magic Curl Celtic soccer club want the team's former coach Dave Roberts back, SABC Radio News reported yesterday.

Celtic's Mananging Director said that due to problems the team had been experiencing , the club was eager to have Roberts back.

He said a fInal decision on the issue will be made after a meeting with Roberts.

Unconfirmed reports have indicated that the club's board of directors may be meeting Roberts before the end of the week.

With players like Doctor KhunlalO, Ace Ntsoelengoe, Chippa Molatedi, Trevor Mthimkhulu, Scara Thindwa, Teenage Dladla and Wellington Manyathi to chose from, coach Jeff Butler has some of the best midfield­ers in the league capable to tear any defence apart.

Wits, who lost their creative midfielder, Zane Moosa, to Sundowns, will be out to prove to their fans that absence of the feared midfielder does not affect them at all.

It will be interesting to see how their engine-room will cope with their star-studded Chiefs counterparts. Watch out for ex -Chiefs striker Abel Chacklas Shongwe. who is always a menace to the Arnakhosi's defence.

In the main attraction of the day, Orlando Pirates will face a wounded Cosmos, who are still licking their wounds after their 2-0 defeat at the of the Phefeni Boys.

It will also be interesting to see how Pitso Mosimane will perform against his fonnerte&m. Cosmos has knocked the Sea Robbers out of many major cup competitions in the past, but with the improved smooth-sail­ing Pirates it will be a tie one carmot afford to miss.

According to the Pirates coach, Walter da Silva, the Buccarmeers could be without their prolifIc scorer Basil 'Kaapse Dans ' Steenkamp, Chilean-born rightback Mario Varas, captain and sweeper Dan Malesela and Hotstix Sikhonde, who are re­ported to be on the casualty list.

Cosmos coach Roy Matthews is likely to field a full squad on Sunday. With Thomas Madigage and the evergreen Augustine Makalakalane spearheading the Cosmos attack, the Bucks defensive will have a busy afternoon. Former Cosmos and now Pirates marksman Johnny 'Black Sunday' Masegela and on-form Tebogo Moloi are likely the players that could win the match for the reigning Bop Save Super Bowl cham­pions.

The second leg semi-finals will be played on the weekend of April 29 and 30. The fInal will be played at Ellis Park on Saturday May 13.

Mike Mangena, Cbiefs free­scoring attacking midfielder (holding the BP Top Eight cup ), is a doubtful starter when the Amakhosi play Wits University during the Ohlsson's Cballenge Cup at the Kings Park Rugby Stadium on Sunday, Durban. The Chiefs P~O Louis Chikoane, is the gentieman wearing the smart Kappa tracksuite.
