The Ministry of Urban and Rural Development, the Omaruru Town Council, and Erongo RED have co-funded a project worth N$28 million to electrify 290 homes in the Hakahana settlement at Omaruru.

Life was difficult for residents in the Hakahana settlement before they had access to electricity.

A man believed to be between 20 and 30 years old died instantly after being hit by a vehicle on the B1 highway, at the bridge from Hakahana Service Station to China Town, in the early hours of Tuesday.

PowerCom inaugurated a new tower in Windhoek's Goreangab residential area.

The Minister of Information and Communication Technology, Dr. Peya Mushelenga, who presided over the tower's launch, emphasised its alignment with the Harambee Prosperity Plan's infrastructure development goals.
