Namibia represents a sign of hope for human security because of its values of peace and diversity.

These sentiments were shared by the Executive Director at the Japan International Cooperation Agency, Yoichi Mine, during a public lecture at the University of Namibia.

The Ondonga Traditional Authority, through Omukwaniilwa Fillemon Nangolo Shuumbwa, has condemned the shooting incident that occurred at Iikokola village earlier today during a duly constituted dispute resolution session of the traditional community court.

The Deputy Minister of Information, Communication, and Technology, Emma Theofilus, has urged Namibians to prioritise social cohesion as a crucial goal.

Theofilus made these remarks during the official opening of the 7th edition of the annual Oranjemund Diamond Festival and Career Fair.
