President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has called on regional councillors and traditional leaders to urgently register flood victims whose mahangu fields are submerged in water.

The call follows the president's visit to flood relocation centres in the Ohangwena region.

The Shingunguma Primary School and Onghala Combined School in the Ohangwena Region have suspended classes due to heavy rains received in the region, accompanied by floodwater from Angola.

A delegation led by Ohangwena Governor Sebastian Ndeitunga took a trip to the two schools to observe the situation.
