The unwillingness of Windhoek's informal settlement residents to sign lease agreements with the city has delayed the completion of electrification projects.

Windhoek Mayor, Queen Kamati, revealed this during the council meeting. 

Erongo RED, in collaboration with the Ministry of Mines and Energy, has electrified 151 houses in Harambee Informal Settlement's Extension 8 in Karibib for N$3.6 million.

The City of Windhoek has gone back to the drawing board on plans to construct flats for the residents of Okapuka ka Nauyala in Ombili Area after the community raised concerns.

In an effort to improve the lives of Okahandja residents, the town's municipality has launched a five-year strategic plan.

The strategic plan aims to provide basic and affordable service to residents, and accelerate land and housing delivery as well as water provision to the residents. 

The Mayor of Otjiwarongo says they are carefully crafting the process for the recruitment of a new Chief Executive Officer for the town.
