The Epukiro Constituency has made significant strides in the areas of agriculture, rural electrification, health, and information and communication infrastructure.

The lives of more than 20 families at Kuten-Hoas settlement in the ||Kharas Region were transformed when their houses were connected to the national electricity grid.

For the past 34 years, rural electrification in the Kavango East Region has mostly targeted public institutions instead of households. 

The regional leadership says it's about time to shift focus to households in rural areas, where some have been without electricity since independence. 

Lack of value addition to the livestock subsector, inadequate access to potable water, poor network coverage, and rural electrification are some of the key areas that need attention to address regional development in the Omaheke Region. 

It is a well-known fact that rural electrification significantly enhances the quality of life.

Residents of Epukiro who have been connected to the electric grid have been urged to capitalise on it to better their lives.

Residents of Otjimbingwe are frustrated over the lack of electricity in their homes.

They say letters requesting the electrification of their homes were written several times but without a positive response.
