The newly elected leadership of the Namibia National Students Organisation (NANSO) wants free tertiary education in the next two years.
NANSO held its 18th National Student Congress over the weekend at Döbra, where it was founded.
Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila has called on the public to collaborate with the government in investing in the funding of education in order for Namibia to reach its economic potential and achieve sustainable growth.
The National African Students Association (NASA) has taken the initiative to assist students in applying for the Namibia Student Financial Assistance Fund (NSFAF).
The Namibia Student Financial Assistance Fund (NSFAF) has awarded loans to 22,178 tertiary students.
The Fund received over 30,000 applications, and close to 8,000 did not qualify for the loan because they were not eligible.
