Khomas Governor Laura McLeod-Katjirua is impressed with the progress made so far and called for the introduction of more similar initiatives.

The Minister of Urban and Rural Development, Erastus Uutoni has given the Municipal Council of Windhoek until March to sort out their differences and complete the process of electing members of the Management Committee.
