I KNOW it has been talked about a lot lately and this is perhaps like dust in the wind, but I want to voice my disappointment and maybe something will be done by the Government.
I am a Mariental citizen and a lot of the happenings in Mariental are too much for the majority of us. For instance, the Municipality of Mariental and its method of filling vacancies.They do not advertise these vacancies, but family and friends are appointed.A lot can be said about this, but Government is only looking at financial matters and not so much at the personal issues.I do not know whether nepotism and favouritism are permitted, but I would like to think not when inexperienced and unsuitable people are appointed in positions that are key to the development of said town and, in the long run, the development of Namibia as a whole.Disgruntled MarientalFor instance, the Municipality of Mariental and its method of filling vacancies.They do not advertise these vacancies, but family and friends are appointed.A lot can be said about this, but Government is only looking at financial matters and not so much at the personal issues.I do not know whether nepotism and favouritism are permitted, but I would like to think not when inexperienced and unsuitable people are appointed in positions that are key to the development of said town and, in the long run, the development of Namibia as a whole.Disgruntled Mariental
