As of today (yesterday), members, former members and their dependants can now own a stake in Nam-mic Holdings through the purchase of these units,\u201d Kalumbu said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Kalumbu, the units, which are valued at N$103 million, will be sold to union members at 50% of their real market value. \u201cAn independent valuation of Nam-mic Holdings was undertaken and the minimum units a member can purchase were set at 200 units. These have a market value of N$2,062, but qualifying members will purchase them for N$1,031,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that 10% of the units will be allocated to vulnerable and former members. \u201cVulnerable members are those earning below N$1 300. These members will have to apply and be given 100% donation, meaning they will not pay a single cent but will share in the growth of the Namitvest portfolio,\u201d he said. The unionist added that from today, members can access the application forms to purchase units on the Namitvest website.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs from 3 November, members can collect application forms from MUN regional offices at Tsumeb, Rosh Pinah, Arandis and in Windhoek. More collection sites will be announced in due course,\u201d Kalumbu said, adding that a sales team will travel from region to region helping members with the application forms.<\/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.
