Rehoboth residents gathered to pay tribute to the late war veteran Theofilus Sakeus at his residence on Friday.

The war veteran, who died on July 11, was described by many as a diplomat in the fight for liberation struggle and left a legacy of peace within the community.

Rehoboth residents are not happy with the town council's introduction of prepaid water metres without first engaging with residents.

Some residents claim that since 2015, they have been using public taps with no other service offered, such as ablution facilities.

Rehoboth tops the list of drug busts over the Easter weekend.

A 27-year-old man was arrested at Rehoboth after he was found in possession of four full and one-quarter Mandrax tablets, valued at N$550. 

The World Bank has indicated that although Namibia is an upper-middle-income country, more than half of the population still lives in poverty.
