President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah Appoints New Minister of Industries, Mines and Energy.

Her Excellency President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has appointed Modestus Amutse as the new Minister of Industries, Mines and Energy, effective 2 December 2025.

The appointment is made under Article 35 of the Constitution of the Republic of Namibia, which empowers the President to appoint Ministers from members of the National Assembly to administer and execute the functions of Government.

Hon. Amutse brings extensive experience in public service. He previously served as Deputy Minister of Information and Communication Technology, and before that as a Member of Parliament and Chairperson of a National Assembly Standing Committee. His earlier leadership roles at regional level further strengthen the depth of experience he brings to this important portfolio.

The President expressed her appreciation to Honourable Frans Kapofi, Minister of Defence and Veterans Affairs, for serving in an acting capacity over the past months. She extended gratitude to him for his commitment, steady leadership, and the support provided to the Ministry during the interim period.

Her Excellency noted that this appointment comes at a critical moment, following the recent Regional and Local Authority Elections where the Namibian people reaffirmed their trust in the SWAPO Party. She emphasised that the 8th Administration is firmly focused on quality service delivery, accountability, and the effective implementation of national priorities, including the SWAPO Party Election Manifesto, its Implementation Plan, and the Sixth National Development Plan (NDP6).

The President wished Amutse success as he assumes his new responsibilities and leads the Ministry at a time when Namibia is advancing industrialisation, strengthening the mining sector, and accelerating progress in the energy space to support sustainable development and shared prosperity across all 14 regions.

President Dr. Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah today commissioned three National Task Forces on Economic Recovery, Health, and Housing and Land, fulfilling a key commitment made during the Namibia Public Private Forum and advancing the implementation of NDP6.

The President noted that Namibia continues to face rising living costs, limited job creation, uneven service delivery, housing shortages, land pressures, and health system burdens. These challenges, she emphasized, cannot be addressed in isolation. The newly established Task Forces bring together experts from government, business, labour, civil society, academia, and faith communities to drive coordinated and results oriented solutions.

Under NDP6, Namibia has a clear roadmap for inclusive development. The Task Forces are strategic instruments designed to accelerate delivery and ensure that national priorities translate into real outcomes for citizens.

The President reaffirmed the 8th Administration’s “business unusual” approach that prioritizes urgency, alignment, and unity of purpose. The Task Forces will focus on the following areas:

• Economic Recovery: Unlock growth, strengthen investment, support innovation, and create opportunities for the youth.

• Health: Build a stronger, more responsive health system guided by national evidence and past reviews.

• Housing and Land: Expand access to serviced land and dignified housing for families across the country.

“Together we will strengthen our economy. Together we will build a healthier nation. Together we will deliver dignified housing and land. Together, under NDP6, we will shape a future where every Namibian can thrive.”

South Africa's Home Affairs Department says fraud was committed by Chidimma Vanessa Adetshina's mother.

Her mother has been accused of stealing a South African woman's identity to register Chidimma's birth.

Chidimma was an infant then.

Home Affairs is taking legal steps.

Unforgettable encounters with majestic giants in Etosha National Park 🐘✨ Did you know that elephants have the largest brains of any land animal? Their intelligence and social bonds make every moment spent observing them truly captivating.

[Travel News Namibia @TravelNewsNamib]

The first animal you are most likely to encounter if you enter through Von Lindequist or Andersson gates into Etosha is the black- faced impala, which is endemic to northwestern Namibia and southwestern Angola.

Donkey Carts come in all shapes and sizes and are a common sight in Maltahöhe, a small settlement in the south of Namibia.
