Namibia, alongside Botswana and Angola, is set to meet with G7 countries over the decision to require all producers to send their diamonds to Belgium for certification.

The United Nations (UN) could look into providing Namibia with expertise to be able to deal with the impact of drought and other natural disasters.

The UNDP Resident Representative to Namibia, Alka Bhatia, says Namibia's development priorities are the same as those of the UN, and these are aligned with the UNDP country programme. 

President Nangolo Mbumba has reiterated that any proposal for development projects is welcome, but said discussions must first be exhausted at the line ministries before reaching the State House.

Different faith-based communities have applauded the government for non-interference in religious affairs and promoting religious tolerance.

President Nangolo Mbumba says Namibia's leadership made a conscious decision to foster healthy relationships with the church and traditional authorities.

The Namibian Government has declined the visa extension request for the King of the Buganda tribe of Uganda, Ronald Mutebi II.

King Mutebi II travelled to Namibia privately on medical grounds in April and has since been recuperating at the Okonguari Psychotherapeutic Centre.
