In response to an ongoing waste crisis, residents of Walvis Bay, led by IPC member, have launched a weekend cleanup campaign. 

The new speaker of the 8th Parliament of the National Assembly, Dr. Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila, has emphasised the need for unity, accountability and a focus on service delivery during an interview with nbc's Inside the Chambers programme.

Residents of Walvis Bay are increasingly becoming frustrated by the poor delivery of service from the local municipal council.

Locals describe the town's services as "third-class" and have raised concerns about the growing number of issues affecting daily life.

The Executive Director in the Ministry of Health and Social Services, Ben Nangombe, said plans are ongoing to address inequities and constraints to accessing health facilities.

Also to be reviewed is the conduct of healthcare workers and perceived shortcomings in project management.

Frustrated Noordoewer residents are accusing the local settlement office, which renders municipal services, of failing to deliver adequate service.

The high influx of people to Khorixas has put service delivery under pressure, with water provision and sewage lines no longer able to keep up with the demand.

The Grootfontein Municipality's Acting Chief Executive Officer, Indileni Lungameni, says the Council has managed to stabilise its finances this year and will commence with key projects early next year. 

As the terms of the country's current regional governors begin to draw to a close, the Governor's Forum has pledged to continue striving for effective service delivery during the remainder of their tenure.

James Uerikua, the Chairperson of the Governor's Forum, expressed his sentiments:

The unwillingness of Windhoek's informal settlement residents to sign lease agreements with the city has delayed the completion of electrification projects.

Windhoek Mayor, Queen Kamati, revealed this during the council meeting. 

The Okahandja municipality is embarking on a number of projects to improve service delivery.

Among the projects are the construction of a fire station, the consolidation of plots 117 and 118, developing agricultural plots for the residents, and the Okahandja Medi Park.
