Employees at the Namibia Press Agency's (NAMPA) head office in Windhoek held a demonstration against unfair labour practises within the agency.

The aggrieved employees are demonstrating against what they regard as unfair internal promotions, no corporate governance from management, and management negotiating in bad faith in a toxic working environment.

They further say that employee grievances are seen as a threat, and they cannot raise their voice on their issues.

They demand better working conditions and a salary increment.

The chairperson of the shopstewards, Hesron Kapanga, said they had requested to hand over their petition to the Board Chairperson, but the board delegated the acting CEO to receive the petition on its behalf.

The employees have, however, taken the decision to continue with the demonstrations until Thursday, giving the board even more time to receive their petition.

NAMPA Board Chairperson Ndeuhala Katonyala-Lewis has declined to comment, saying it was an internal matter.
