RedForce Debt Management has filed an urgent application with the Windhoek High Court to prevent the Henties Bay Municipality from terminating its debt recovery contract.

As of last month, the City of Windhoek's total debtors' book stood at N$1.2 billion.

According to its spokesperson, Lydia Amutenya, after a public notice that households would be disconnected if they didn't pay up, clients have been flocking in to make arrangements to avoid being inconvenienced.
