The Namibian Police Force is advising the public to exercise extreme caution when making fires at home or handling flammable products. 

This warning comes in response to a rise in fire incidents reported in recent months. 

The police have issued an urgent warning about scammers who claim to be selling plots of land across the country.

This scam, known as the Tuyoleni Housing Project, began in 2022 and has already netted about N$2 million.
