Namibia continues to mourn the passing of its second First Lady, Penehupifo Pohamba, who died on 17 October. She is remembered for her dedication to maternal and child healthcare, the fight against HIV/AIDS and malaria, and the empowerment of women and rural communities.

Close to 64 households displaced by heavy rain have returned to their homes after a two-month stay at the Etunda Relocation Centre in the Ruacana constituency.
