As heavy rains persist in the Zambezi region, residents of Sibbinda Constituency have found themselves flooded in their homesteads.

Residents say food and household appliances are damaged by the water, while the daily operation of schools and local businesses in the area is also affected.

Collaboration was highlighted as essential to achieving a malaria-free Namibia during the World Malaria Day commemoration and the launch of the indoor residual spraying campaign in Sibbinda Constituency.

Sibbinda Constituency is the latest to receive fibre connectivity from Telecom Namibia.

Connected to the internet now are the constituency office, the health centre, and the education circuit.

A herd of elephants forcefully destroyed the fence surrounding Zambezi Green Farm located in Sibbinda Constituency, resulting in significant damage to both the infrastructure and the maize crops on Saturday night.

The dust has refused to settle in the Sibbinda Constituency following the appointment of a cleaner.

The community feels the appointment was unfair as the position was not advertised to accord all interested residents a chance to apply.
