The Electoral Commission of Namibia has announced the final results for 12 more local authorities, bringing the total number of verified and declared local authority election results to 35 out of 59.

Between January and March 2024, the police recorded 12 incidents of baby dumping.

This the police say is alarming, as there are a number of authorised places, such as schools, hospitals, and churches, where mothers can leave a newborn without being charged.
