Following failed discussions over plot allocations, residents of Kap n Bou took to the streets demanding that Otavi Town Council avail them land to build houses.

Leading the group, Wilfred Somseb said informal settlers paid N$200 each for a surveyor and allocation of 120 plots.

Residents of Kap N Bou and Blikkiesdorp have petitioned the Grootfontien Municipality to act hastily on addressing the lack of proper sanitation, water, and electricity, clean up filthy streets, as well as address the lack of fire brigade services at the settlements.
