Namibia: SPYL Condemns Stoffels Murder

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Oshakati – The Swapo Party Youth League (SPYL) has condemned the brutal murder of David Bezuidenhout High School learner Magdalena Stoffels, who was raped and murdered in Windhoek on Tuesday morning on her way to school.

SPYL Secretary for Education, Culture, and Pioneer Movement Natangue Ithete said the SPYL strongly condemned the killing of the 17-year-old. He called for heavy punishment for the perpetrator.

Stoffels, a Grade 11 learner, was brutally assaulted and raped in a riverbed along Gammams River in Khomasdal, while on her way to school. A suspect was arrested a short distance from the scene of crime. She was first spotted by a passerby. She died later at the Katutura Hospital.

“We are more than shocked and we cannot allow the situation to continue. How many times did our women cry out? How many times did they demonstrate? What is wrong with us Namibian men? Where are we heading this country? This type of ill and unacceptable behaviour should come to an end,” said Ithete.

He said women need to be treated with respect and care by men. He asked men to take responsibility by caring for young girls and women in general. The SPYL official added that there is need for the police to recruit and deploy more police officers in every corner of Namibia to ensure the safety of women and children.

“The Ministry of Safety and Security should make sure that the country has more police officers on bicycles, cars and on foot, patrolling our cities, towns and villages. Namibia should be prepared to pay more so that our law enforcement officers are adequately funded in order to fight crime,” he said. He urged men to focus on issues that addresses poverty.

“Let’s join hands and fight against enemies of women development. Let us fight against po-verty, unemployment, HIV/AIDS and other social evils to ensure a healthy energetic nation for the realisation of Vision 2030,” he said. Ithete conveyed SPYL’s condolences to the family, friends and David Bezuidenhout High School following Stoffels’ death.
