President Nangolo Mbumba has praised the Namibian Federation of the Visually Impaired (NFVI) for its significant contributions to advancing the cause of those living with visual impairments by offering services and advocacy for over 35 years.

President Nangolo Mbumba has encouraged Namibians to play their part and answer the appeals by the Namibian Federation of the Visually Impaired.

The support would enable the Federation to continue implementing its programmes, including comprehensive mobility and rehabilitation training.

The Chairperson of the Namibian Federation of the Visually Impaired, Alfons Maketo, says the association’s goal is to have branches in all regions of the country and to make programmes accessible to persons living with disabilities. 

||Kharas Police Commander, Commissioner Marius Katamila, has reminded senior police officers that effective leadership is not about isolation but connection, empathy, and inspiring others. 

There is an urgent need to build awareness about the importance of investing in research.

Research assists in the development of any given area and improves the quality of life of the people.

These sentiments were shared at the bi-annual National Student Research Symposium in Windhoek.
