NHE sponsors Narib and Hainuca

The National Housing Enterprise (NHE) has come to the aid of two Namibian athletes, Ernst Narib and Gilbert Hainuca, by sponsoring their participation at the International Meet in Gaborone on 30 May.

A total of 28 athletes will attempt to secure podium places in what is expected to be a star-studded event.

“The National Housing Enterprise (NHE) is pleased to announce the sponsorship of two Namibian athletes who are set to participate at Gaborone.

"The sponsorship, valued at N$30 000, will contribute towards accommodation, flights, meals and sport gear for the athletics whilst in Botswana,” NHE said in a statement.

Ernest Narib is the current 200m men's national champion and Gilbert Hainuca is the 100m men's national champion.

“This sponsorship forms part of our community relationships approach and seeks to make a difference towards sport development in the lives of Namibian athletes.

“This initiative is NHE’s response to the call for action for Namibian corporates to invest more in sport and our Namibian Athletics and it seeks to honour our corporate social responsibility within the communities we operate.”
