At the presentation of the vehicle, President of the Olympic committee, Agnes Tjongatero stated that ,Namibia was presented with the vehicle out of the 200 IOC countries which is going to be for the athletes and not for personal gain and use.
She said that the vehicle will be used by those athletes who are struggling to travel in and around the country because of shortage of vehicles and officials maybe able to use it on certain events pertaining to the welfare of the various athletes. Tjongatero also highlighted that since the IOC caters for a lot of countries, the vehicle has to have due care as other federations will also be receiving similar presentations and it will be a while before Namibia receives a similar presentation. Meanwhile at the presentation of the bus, the committee got an opportunity to officially launch their interactive website. The website will feature different portals as well as social media functions to aid the users with the familiarisation of Namibia National Olympic Committee. Again on the media aspect of the website, different platforms for attaining history and current events will be availed for users. The interactive website will enable anyone to to identify the different federations affiliated with NNCO and also has a media centre where the media can retrieve photographs of high resolution and other publications to aid in the process of information dissemination.
