As part of the Genocide Remembrance Day commemoration, Vice President Lucia Witbooi visited the San community at the Ombili location in Eenhana town.

The visit aimed to assess their living conditions and to familiarise herself with the community, which now falls under the Presidency through her office.

A 21-year-old mother took her life after murdering her 5-year-old daughter at the old Ombili informal settlement at Otjiwarongo in the Otjozondjupa Region on Saturday.

Police in the town were alerted to the crime between 16h50 and 17h00.
