The African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) has engaged stakeholders in the ||Kharas Region to assess government performance to enhance good governance and foster sustainable development.

Swapo Party Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has called on party members and supporters to protect the country's hard-won independence as the country heads for next year's national elections.

She made the call while addressing the party's rally at Keetmanshoop.

The Minister of Finance and Public Enterprises, Iipumbu Shiimi, reiterated the significance of engaging with ||Kharas regional leadership during a meeting held in Keetmanshoop.

He emphasised the importance of consulting with stakeholders to effectively address and incorporate their budgetary needs.

In accordance with the resolutions of the Swapo Party Congress in 2022, the women's wing of the party organised its inaugural activity workshop for the leadership of ||Kharas and Hardap regions at Keetmanshoop.

The birth of twin girls in January of this year has brought immense joy to a couple from Keetmanshoop.

However, what they initially believed to be a double bundle of joy has quickly turned into a nightmare.

Unemployed youth in Keetmanshoop have raised their concerns and demanded a halt to the interviews of shortlisted police cadets in the ||Kharas Region.

They claimed that the recruitment shortlisting process is discriminatory and disadvantages the young people of the region.

Residents of the ||Kharas Region have thrown their support behind the motion on the writing-off of water and electricity debts that local authorities owe bulk suppliers, NamWater and NamPower.
