If the commissioners fix these matters, then things will go well,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the new board members must give guidance to the commission on how to use funds to help the federations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere should be less travelling from the commission side as we have sports officers in the regions. There is no need to have a person travel from the commission in Windhoek to the regions, as this uses up the budget that we are supposed to give to federations as part of their administration fees,\u201d Tjongarero said.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the NSC was allocated N$17.5 million. During the 2022\/23 financial year, it received N$10.2 million.<\/p>\n<p>During her budget motivation speech, Tjongarero said the improved budget was intended for the commission to implement several of its programmes and projects it had put on hold due to a lack of funding in the past.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince we had the sports awards in Lu\u0308deritz last year, I have been asking for a report of what was pledged by the different companies, and no one has answered me on this. I, therefore, hope that the new board will investigate this matter of how pledges from companies are used,\u201d she 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.
