The Katima Mulilo Border Post between Namibia and Zambia will start operating 24 hours a day by the end of next month.

The Minister of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety, and Security, Dr. Albert Kawana, says this is one of the steps the government is taking to ensure smooth trade and services with its neighbouring countries.

Dr. Kawana was addressing a two-week training workshop for the security sector and other agencies operating at the border.
