In the Kavango East Region, mourners gathered in numbers at the governor's office, and candles were lit as a sign of honour and remembrance. 

Governor Bonifatius Wakudumo explained the importance of lighting candles on such occasions.

"The light of the candle means honouring the deceased, remembering the deceased as well, and equally paying tribute to the person."

Shambyu Traditional Authority Hompa encouraged mourners to stay strong during this dark time.

The Cash and Carry at Rundu saga continues unabated as it remains unresolved despite them not returning to the stores on Friday.

The workers have been camping at the supermarket since Wednesday, blocking the entrance to the store until their demands are met.

The police had to be called in to forcefully remove the workers to allow the shop to operate.

Acting NamPol Regional Commander, Deputy Commissioner Eino Nambahu, says the police action was necessary to protect the rights of the employer, Cash n Carry.
