Government delivers on key services, says Nandi-Ndaitwah

IN an effort to deliver quality services to the Namibian people, the government has installed transformers to supply electricity to Mukorofu, Nankuntwe, and Namiyundu schools at a cost of N$4.5 million in the Zambezi Region.

This was said by Swapo Party Presidential candidate Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah during a rally held in Katima Mulilo on Saturday.

According to Nandi-Ndaitwah, the installation of a transformer at Liashulu village, as well as the completion of rural electrification projects in flood-prone areas, has also been completed.

“The government is committed to continuing improvements to infrastructure to ensure quality education and health services,” she said.

She added that the government is also committed to upgrading some clinics to health centres, some health centres to hospitals, and some hospitals to district hospitals, including Katima Mulilo Hospital.

Nandi-Ndaitwah indicated that, as outlined in the SWAPO Election Manifesto, they are dedicated to ensuring energy supply security and increasing rural quality service delivery.

Moreover, she said that under the National Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Expansion Program, the Zambezi multipurpose hall at the Zambezi Vocational Training Center was constructed at a cost of N$60,351,187.43.

She explained that since Namibia’s independence, the SWAPO Party government has implemented dedicated socio-economic development programs to ensure that people in all regions, including Zambezi, enjoy the benefits of independence.

These initiatives include the construction of roads, bridges, health and educational facilities, and rural electrification, among others.

She said that this includes the Trans-Caprivi Highway and the Zambezi and Ngoma Bridges, which have transformed Katima Mulilo into an economic hub and gateway to the SADC Region.

Additionally, she said that out of 14,047 national educational facilities, 120 are in Zambezi, of which 106 are public facilities.

In health services, Nandi-Ndaitwah said that out of 530 facilities countrywide, 38 are in Zambezi, which includes 33 clinics, 4 health centres, and one hospital, supported by several outreach points.
