It is looking like Namwah, but what you need to do is get some shots of the entire bunch, if the bud is still on, include that too. The close up shots of the bunch are not very helpful unless included are some shots of the whole bunch/inflorescence.

It looks like Namwah. I believe you had some others that were ID'd as Namwah, compare it your other plants and take note of their similarities.

I do have D.Namwah This plant is has a thinner p.stem not as stout and the leaves are more spread out. Very similar to tall orinoco. The plant to the right with the black strap is orinoco they look very close.

Those characteristics are not very important, look more closely at the flowers and the fruit.
