Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 32004, member: 636"] The environment and tourism minister, Indileni Daniel, plans to talk with the Namibia Wildlife Resorts board about a contract dispute involving former managing director Matthias Ngwangwama. Ngwangwama took the company to court after claiming the board broke his contract terms. He argues they failed to give him six months' notice before his contract expired. Ngwangwama proudly shared his achievements during his time as managing director. He led the company to its first-ever profit in 2019 and recorded another impressive profit year in 2023. The executive cleared all company debt and received clean audit reports for two consecutive years. Despite the legal challenge, he expressed gratitude for serving his nation. Sources suggest that Ngwangwama might have been removed after blocking certain privatization deals proposed by internal NWR members. An internal memo confirmed his departure and appointed Epson Kasuto as the acting managing director. Corporate governance expert Ntelamo Ntelamo believes the board breached contract terms and cannot explain why Ngwangwama was not properly informed about his contract termination. The controversy includes allegations about Ngwangwama opposing a controversial Sossussvlei Desert deal that could potentially cost NWR around 175 million Namibian dollars. Minister Daniel admitted she has not yet met with the NWR board since her appointment and cannot comment on the specific details of the dispute. NWR spokesperson Nelson Ashipala described the matter as internal and declined to provide further comments. The board claimed they first learned about Ngwangwama's legal action through social media. The unfolding situation highlights potential tensions within the organization and raises questions about Namibia Wildlife Resorts' corporate governance practices. [/QUOTE]
