The offices of the Directorate of Veterinary Services at Rundu are flooded with the sewage water.

Administrative Officer Ericah Geingos says the situation is posing a hazard and needs urgent intervention.

Geingos says the situation has been going on since July last year, but the Rundu Town Council has allegedly failed to address it.

They say sewage manholes get filled up and overflow every day due to some blockages in the area.
