Ohorongo Cement donates 720 bags of Cement to Oshana

13 August 2015

Namibia: The Oshana regional council has received 720 bags of cement from Ohorongo Cement, according to All Africa. The cement will be used for projects in the region.

The cement was delivered to the regional strategic warehouse at Uuwangula, some 10km outside Oshakati. Ompundja regional councillor Adolf Uunona, who spoke on behalf of Oshana governor Clemens Kashupuulwa, said that the cement would be distributed to 13 projects constructing water tank stands, halls and small bridges. Uunona praised Ohorongo Cement for investing more than US$1.12m by sending employees to Germany for training, facilitating education and job creation by supporting vocational training centres like the Namibian Institute of Mining and Technology and offering internships and job attachments.

"The government needs to be commended for having succeeded in maintaining a positive business climate that has been conductive for growing Ohorongo Cement. I have been reliably informed that the company contributes more than 1% towards the country's gross domestic product (GDP)," said Uunona. The councillor also thanked Ohorongo Cement for giving back to society, especially to the rural areas where the majority of Namibians live.

General manager of Ohorongo Cement, Rudolf Coetzee, said that as part of the silver jubilee independence celebrations, the company committed to donate 720 bags of cement to each of the 14 regions of Namibia. "Even though Ohorongo Cement is still an infant within a brand new industry, it diligently strives to continuously contribute towards public-private-partnerships and support government initiatives like Vision 2030, Growth at Home and NDP4," said Coetzee.

Namibia: Ohorongo Cement has donated US$84,450 of cement to the Namibian government. One truckload of cement will be donated to each of the country's 14 regions for the silver jubilee independence celebrations and the general development of Namibia.

The governors will be tasked in-house to identify a project within the region that they would like to use the cement for.

"The timing of this donation is perfect and the government is grateful to Ohorongo Cement for their contribution towards the development of Namibia and its people. It is a lot of cement," said Mbako.

"We want to make a difference and support our government to leave a lasting legacy for all Namibians," said Hans-Wilhelm Schütte, managing director of Ohorongo Cement. Besides the latest donation, Ohorongo Cement has invested US$548,928 as corporate social investment already since it began production, according to Schütte.
