Former learners of Festus Gonteb Primary School in Swakopmund are moving swiftly to turn the construction of a N$50 million school hall into reality.
 

What began as a small woodworking project in Mondesa, Swakopmund, has grown into a source of livelihood for several young men seeking a better future.

39-year-old Arnoldus Hoakhaob started Inspired Wood Craft more than five years ago with the intention of teaching men and women furniture making.

Residents and alumni of Festus Gonteb Primary School in Mondesa, Swakopmund, are partnering with government to build a school hall to accommodate a growing learner population.

Erongo Governor Natalia |Goagoses says every Namibian deserves to live in a decent shelter and access basic services.

Her remarks follow after a fire that swept through Extension 14 in Mondesa, Swakopmund, destroying 13 shacks.

The weekend blaze left more than 30 people homeless.

The Coastal Warriors Volleyball Club, led by its founder and coach Tobias Andreas, is actively seeking to boost youth engagement in Swakopmund. Andreas highlighted that despite a growing interest in the sport throughout Namibia, participation among the youth remains lower than expected.

The Erongo Police will continue their special operations to arrest drug dealers, thieves, and other criminals terrorising Swakopmund residents.

Chief Inspector Iileni Shapumba says recent operations in this regard have yielded success.

Families of the victims of the recent shack fire in the Tulinawa and Mondesa residential areas in Swakopmund are still traumatised and left at the mercy of good Samaritans.

On Sunday, two men were discovered unconscious at a graveyard after consuming crack cocaine, but one of them died at the Swakopmund State Hospital on Monday.
