Residents of the Neu-Samorou resettlement farm in the Otavi Constituency, Otjozondjupa Region, are calling for urgent government intervention as they continue to struggle with long-standing water supply dating back to their resettlement in 2003.
Farmers resettled in the ||Kharas Region have voiced their concerns surrounding the resettlement programme.
Among the issues raised is access to the farming land as others have occupied the farms, lack of functional boreholes, and dilapidated infrastructure.
Members of Parliament in the National Council supported the budgetary allocation of the Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform, and appealed for an increase in order to meet its obligations of ensuring food security and equitable land re-distribution.
