Swapo MP Clemencia Coetzee has called on the government to fast-track the delivery of affordable and inclusive housing across Namibia.

In an effort to improve the lives of Okahandja residents, the town's municipality has launched a five-year strategic plan.

The strategic plan aims to provide basic and affordable service to residents, and accelerate land and housing delivery as well as water provision to the residents. 

The president of the Association for Local Authorities in Namibia (ALAN) says it is imperative that those tasked with housing delivery look into affordable models to address the backlog.
