The National Youth Council is without a board after the Minister of Sport, Youth, and National Service dissolved the board with immediate effect.

Minister Agness Tjongarero cited what she calls "serious contraventions" of the Act as the reason for the removal of the board.

The National Youth Council (NYC) team visited the Tsumkwe Constituency to engage with the youth. The NYC delegation held meetings in Omatako Village and the settlements of Gam and Tsumkwe. 

The Executive Chairperson of the National Youth Council says there is still much work to be done to capacitate young people and coordinate programmes and activities among various institutions, especially at the grassroot level.
