The streets of Rehoboth were filled with chants and an air of determination as the community staged a large-scale protest against the ongoing issue of drug abuse, which has plagued the town for years. 

Cases of domestic violence and drug abuse remain the most reported at Outjo.

Outjo Police Station Commander and Chief Inspector Seun Karupa, however, say they are on alert to respond to any distress call.

Escalating cases of Gender-Based Violence (GBV), teenage pregnancies and drug abuse have resulted in committees being set up at Outjo in the Kunene Region to help bring the situation under control before it gets completely out of hand.
