The Uukolonkadhi Traditional Authority has initiated a project to make cut lines in farming areas to break veld fires when they occur.
The project aims to protect grazing areas and homesteads from veld fire outbreaks.

The Acting Chief of the Uukolonkadhi Traditional Authority, Malakia Shoombe, has urged the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) to strengthen broadcast outreach to its areas so that the traditional authority and its community members can transmit information that reaches the masses.

The Minister of Urban and Rural Development, James Sankwasa, has described the administration of the Ruacana Town Council as "chaotic" and has ordered an urgent investigation into its financial and operational affairs.
