Aron is not a political victim

Anonymous writes: I have noted with regret the selective release of information and the cover-up in the media regarding Valerie Aron of the Okahandja Municipality. Aron was elected as a councillor to manage the affairs of the municipality to the benefit of the inhabitants of that town. Instead, she made herself available as candidate and entered into the council on her own terms and vision to abuse her position and the trust people had in her. It is regretful that you now try and paint her as being harassed simply for her corrupt practices and self-enrichment because she claims to be the victim of a witch-hunt as result of not having supported Cde Hage Geingob in his bid for the vice-presidency of Swapo. What a failed nation we have become! To try and justify the daylight theft and corruption Okahandja inhabitants had to endure at the hands of this young woman and those in cahoots with her? You can go and see for yourself how she abused her position and succeeded in building her private home on town parkland; and how she incorporated trees and landscaping prepared and reserved for a public park into her private yard. Mind you she cannot even provide proof of how she acquired the funds needed to build a house of that sort. Now you come and throw the race card simply because that is what you want us to become; an easy way out for such disgraceful individuals like her. What a shame and disgrace. Cde Jerry Ekandjo, son of Okahandja, does not deserve to be linked to individuals of that calibre. The Swapo office under SG Cde Mbumba should actually investigate the charges against her and expel her from Swapo for bringing the name of party into disrepute on the basis of: 1. breaching the trust of the electorate; 2. cowardly playing the race card, causing disharmony within the party in her attempt to cover up; 3. for under-estimating the intelligence of the population and the Swapo leadership. I hope we can get rid of this type of self-enriching elected party members. Somehow I have a feeling that this paper, which is always first to print unworthy news involving the race card when it come to Cde Geingob, will not print this at all.
