The Ministry of Health and Social Services (MoHSS) has dismissed rumours circulating false information about the detection of monkeypox (Mpox) disease in Namibia in a social media post.

Judge Moses Chinengu has dismissed Sacky Shanghala's application, allowing the Fishrot scandal's main trial to proceed. 

Shanghala, a key figure in the case, had sought the judge's recusal and the quashing of some charges against him and his co-accused.
