The Social Security Commission (SSC), through its development fund, has funded the Gebedplass San Self-Help Project at Otjozohungu in the Otjombinde Constituency.
 
The project, which consists of dairy cows, welding, a vehicle, and an office, was set up at a cost of over N$1 million.

The Social Security Commission's Manager of the Development Fund, Olga Katjiuongua, emphasised that projects such as these come with the responsibility of ensuring that enough profit is made to address developmental challenges.

Ignatius Kariseb has been re-elected as Omaheke Regional Council's Chairperson, while Piniel Pakarae and Wenzel Kavaka of Epukiro and Otjombinde Constituencies are members of the management committee.

In his acceptance speech, Kariseb promised to foster unity among the council members for the benefit of regional development.

A pressing issue on the table that needs to be addressed is youth unemployment.
