We are not about positions and are united from the root. Therefore, we cannot be moved by desperate attempts to divide us,\u201d Forbes said while welcoming new members into the party.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, IPC is on course to restore the dignity of Walvis Bay residents and cannot allow themselves to be misled by dividing tactics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey even offered our councillors positions in their parties. Therefore, we want to inform those who went behind our backs to conspire their attempts don\u2019t move us. Come 2024 and we will take over the governing ranks of this country,\u201d Forbes said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, IPC on Saturday welcomed over 260 new members at Walvis Bay, who include various fishermen as well as an Otweya committee member, Nehale Iya Mpingana.<\/p>\n<p>The party went on a recruitment drive in Narraville, where they conducted door-to-door campaigns to recruit more members.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking during the gathering, the regional chairperson of IPC, Aloysius Kangulu, said they started with the recruitment drive three weeks ago with the aim to increase their membership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will keep on marching to ensure economic and social progression and are happy that our membership numbers are increasing on daily basis. It is a positive sign and shows we are strengthening ourselves,\u201d Kangulu explained.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, Namibians are looking upon IPC to rescue Namibia from the Fishrot-tainted ruling party.<\/p>\n<p>New IPC member Olsen Katzao said he has never supported a political party but felt he should join IPC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI joined IPC because everybody must eat \u2013 not only one party,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
