Chief executive officer (CEO) of the Lüderitz Waterfront Development Company (LWDC) Fluksman Samuehl has paid tribute to founding president Sam Nujoma.
“It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of comrade Sam Nujoma at the age of 95 on Saturday, 8 February 2025,” says Samuehl.
“As a Namibian leader with a long-term vision, he was clear and supported practical initiatives to revive the once abandoned harbour town of Lüderitz. This culminated in the birth of LWDC, which plays a major role in the economic development of the harbour town and the //Kharas region today,” he says.
According to the CEO, the LWDC owes a great debt of gratitude to the founding president.
“We, therefore, pay tribute to this great leader who taught us what servant leadership is really about. With his courage, determination and perseverance he led our country towards national independence and democracy during a difficult time,” he says.
“We send our condolences to the founding first lady, the Nujoma and Kondombolo families, and share the sense of loss felt by all Namibians, Africa, and the world over.
“Let the soul of comrade Sam Nujoma rest in eternal peace,” he adds.
