PRESIDENTIAL spokesperson Alfredo Hengari has described the proposal by Fashionable Democratic Motion (PDM) president McHenry Venaani to implement an unemployment youths grant of N$1 500 as reckless.<\/b><\/p>\n

Venaani referred to as for the institution of a month-to-month social grant for unemployed youth on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn condition that unemployment, particularly among the many youth, has reached disaster ranges \u2013 with no options in sight, we suggest that an unemployment profit grant of N$1 500 be launched to function a security internet to the numerous younger unemployed folks,\u201d Venaani stated in response to the appropriation invoice debated in parliament. <\/p>\n

Venaani stated his name for a social grant for unemployed youth was made in context of Namibia’s oil discovery and the anticipated income it’ll generate in future. <\/p>\n

Talking on Desert Radio yesterday, Hengari accused the Fashionable Democratic Motion chief of being a populist and stated such a fund will expose the nation to extra monetary burdens.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe chief of the opposition is taking a populist stance in so far as the difficulty is worried. I feel he’s the one excessive on rhetoric and fewer on pragmatism. If you give you proposals, you should be capable to get the cash to fund such initiatives,\u201d Hengari stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, sadly, beneath the present circumstances, it will likely be reckless for anybody to think about a grant of that nature. It’s worthwhile to develop the financial system and I do not suppose Venaani understands that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hengari stated president Hage Geingob is \u201cnot reckless\u201d to give you unsustainable measures.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe purpose is, it is advisable fund what you are proposing, in any other case you are placing a burden on future generations. <\/p>\n

Already what we’re placing in our grant system through the years and likewise with the will increase slated for this yr, we’re doing what’s throughout the technique of the federal government,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

In a wide-ranging interview, Hengari additionally defended Geingob’s report forward of his state-of-the-nation handle at present.<\/p>\n

Critics, together with opposition parliamentarians, stated they anticipate Geingob to ship a rhetoric-filled state-of-the-nation handle. <\/p>\n

\u201cPoliticians could also be inside their function of opposition. However that is additionally a bit dishonest once we do not state issues as they’re. To say that the president has been utilizing excessive rhetoric is inaccurate as a result of the actions and the information communicate for themselves,\u201d Hengari stated.<\/p>\n

Political analyst Rui Tyitende stated since Geingob got here to energy in 2015, he dedicated his administration towards bettering the livelihood of all Namibians. <\/p>\n

He cited the pillar on social development similar to poverty, land and housing, entry to major healthcare and training for example. <\/p>\n

\u201cHowever what we’ve seen and in lower than two years of his time period, I do not suppose there’s a scarcity of disagreement that the president has over-promised and under-delivered. <\/p>\n

\u201cI may give you one basic instance, the entire mantra of shared prosperity, the Namibian Home, and inclusive progress. All these are feel-good phrases, however they don’t commit the president to something particular,\u201d Tyitende stated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
