The Tsumkwe-Grootfontein road upgrade from gravel to tar, will be given priority by the Road Authority in terms of the regional road master plan document.

Otjozondjupa Regional Governor James Uerikua says there is a need to intensify linkages and add value to the devil's claw plant.

Uerikua made these remarks at a two-day training and certification workshop for 30 devil's claw harvesters from different conservancies in the Okakarara Constituency.
