These ladies crawl around my house all the time. I have been researching them and I think it may belong to the genus Dasylabris but I'm not sure of the species. I'm not sure if the last photo is a different species also because it has slightly different markings on the abdomen.

Two very similar Codon species, Codon schenckii and Codon royenii, occur in Namibia. Codon schenckii has bright yellow flowers (not pale yellow) and the flowers are more open (less bell shaped). Codon royenii has pale yellow flowers and the flowers are quite closed or bell shaped.
There has been some speculation that a third Codon species could exist in Namibia which has open flowers with a pale yellow colour - which would make it very similar to this observation.
