Preparations for the 7th National ICT Summit were underway this afternoon at the Mercure Hotel in Windhoek.

The three-day summit is expected to kick off tomorrow.

Over 80 residents residing in a riverbed in Windhoek's Freedom Square were left destitute after 33 of their man-made shacks burned to the ground around midnight last night.

The fire left one resident seriously injured and admitted to intensive care at Katutura State Hospital.

The Councillor of Katutura East has called on the City of Windhoek (CoW) to write off the debts of the elderly and vulnerable people in the constituency.

The Ministry of Health and Social Services (MoHSS) is empowering social workers with coping skills to combat tuberculosis (TB) and leprosy diseases in Namibia. 

Residents of Okahandja's informal settlements are protesting against the municipality's alleged failure to respond to longstanding grievances.

Residents demand better service delivery, land delivery, and the provision of pre-paid water metres.
