Hilma Nakashole: Breaking barriers behind the bulldozer 🚜

For nine years, Hilma Nakashole has stood out as the only woman operating a bulldozer at NamWater in Oshakati — and she wears that role with pride.

“When I walked into my interview, there was doubt,” she recalls. “But I proved that women can do it just like men.”

Today, she not only operates bulldozers but also drives tipper trucks, challenging every stereotype about women in heavy machinery.

Her journey is more than personal achievement — it reflects a shift in what is possible in spaces long dominated by men.

She is currently part of the Oshakati purification plant extension project, a N$743 million upgrade that will boost water treatment capacity from 40,000 to 90,000 m³ per day, strengthening supply across Oshana, Ohangwena, and Oshikoto regions.

A story of resilience, courage, and breaking ceilings one load at a time. 💪
