Disgruntled Okahandja residents are up in arms over poor service delivery at the town, claiming that their pleas for help fall on deaf ears.

At a community meeting held in Okahandja on Sunday, the residents said issues of poor water supply, inadequate land delivery, and the lack of proper sanitation remain unresolved despite numerous appeals to councillors and the municipality.

Sewage water, which has become a breeding ground for mosquitoes and a health hazard with the potential to cause diseases like cholera and malaria, flows freely within the community.
