Africa-Press – Namibia. The Namibia Industrial Development Agency (Nida) has set itself the target of creating 35 000 jobs within the next five years.
This is one of the goals outlined in their newly developed Turnaround Integrated Strategic Business Plan (ISBP) for the financial years 2025/26 to 2029/30.
Nida chief executive Richwell Lukonga says they have already taken a number of steps towards making this plan a reality, which included a recent breakfast meeting with various stakeholders.
“From said engagement, we have had many offers from institutions willing to partner and share same business objectives that align with our organisational mandates. This is one of the many initiatives we’re embarking on to ensure that our strategy does not gather dust,” he says.
Nida chief financial officer Julius Nghikevali highlights the new plan’s importance.
“The ISBP is a defining moment for Nida, as it lays out the agency’s trajectory over the next five years. The ISBP is not merely a document but a commitment to transformation, a deliberate roadmap that will guide Nida’s efforts in strengthening it in an institutional capacity, enhancing operational efficiency, and driving industrialisation that forms part of the last stretch to assist he government in achieving Vision 2030,” he says.
“We look forward to sharing these milestones to the public, which is a critical stakeholder, to be held accountable and transparent – a value we have always lived by,” he adds.
