NBC is working towards reinstating previously discontinued popular soapies to television screens.

NBC Director General, Menesia Muinjo revealed this during MICT's high-level stakeholder engagement at Keetmanshoop.

Muinjo said this in response to concerns expressed by ||Kharas Regional Council Chairperson Gerrit Witbooi about residents in Aroab and surrounding areas migrating to the free-to-air direct broadcast satellite television service in neighbouring South Africa.

Muinjo said she planned to soon engage stakeholders in the region to listen to concerns and identify areas of improvement.
Stakeholders also raised concerns over poor mobile network coverage and connectivity blackouts in the region.

MTC's Manager of Network Development Gert Vermeulen further noted that several sites have been identified for development to improve mobile network coverage.
