BREAKING NEWS … Minister of urban and rural development James Sankwasa has dismissed the entire Katima Mulilo Town Council from office with immediate effect. According to a government Gazette published on 15 August, the minister fired the council under section 92(2) of the Local Authorities Act, 1992.
“I, in respect of the town council of Katima Mulilo, declare that all the powers, duties and functions of the council vest in me; remove all the members of the council from office, with effect from the date of publication of this notice in the Gazette,” the notice reads. Sankwasa declined to comment when contacted by The Namibian on Monday. He had given the council an ultimatum in July, citing alleged maladministration.

In my opinion, it is wrong to put on auction primary residence of someone that has paid for it for over 10 years when they default for less than 6 months for example. The auctioning price is usually a pittance. Let’s afford such a person ample time to restructure their repayment.

Therefore whilst we are working on implementing a necessary legislative intervention, I wish to appeal to financial institutions et al to pause this inhumane practice. Shelter is a human right too.

Khomas faces structural development hurdles, says Governor

The Khomas Region continues to face significant development challenges that are stalling inclusive growth and social progress, Governor Sam Shafishuna Nujoma has warned.

Speaking at a recent stakeholder engagement session aimed at fostering collaboration and improving service delivery, Nujoma highlighted key concerns, including a housing backlog exceeding 25,000 units, high school dropout rates, and an inadequate public transport system.

“These challenges reflect the broader need for integrated and sustained development planning across sectors,” he said.

Namibia’s household debt rises to N$68.9bn

Namibia’s household credit increased by N$166 million in May 2025, pushing the total debt stock to N$68.9 billion, according to analysis by Simonis Storm.

The rise reflects continued demand for secured lending despite high living costs and sluggish income growth.

“Although credit growth remains positive, households are clearly operating in a constrained environment where affordability and income uncertainty are central to their financial decisions,” said Almandro Jansen, Junior Economist at Simonis Storm.

ECB backs Central RED push as City of Windhoek stalls

The Electricity Control Board (ECB) says it remains firmly behind efforts to establish a Central Regional Electricity Distributor (Central RED), but a lack of consensus within the City of Windhoek is delaying progress.

The proposed Central RED,meant to streamline electricity supply in Windhoek, the Khomas Regional Council, Dordabis, and surrounding areas,is part of Namibia’s broader electricity reform under the RED (Regional Electricity Distributor) model.

ECB Chief Executive Officer Robert Kahimise said the Central RED would integrate both urban and rural electricity networks under a single operator, helping to address inequalities in access to electricity.
