The Frans Indongo Group has donated a tractor worth N$800,000 to the Ukwangali Traditional Authority.

The tractor will be used to assist the community in agricultural production and strengthening food security.

Ukwangali Traditional Authority Hompa Eugene Siwombe has called on the community to cooperate with the Malaria Indoor Residual Spray team.

Siwombe was speaking at the launch of the campaign at Nkurenkuru.

The campaign, which will run until early December, aims to achieve 85% coverage.

The Ukwangali Traditional Authority raised more than 363 thousand dollars at a fundraising gala dinner to procure essential agricultural equipment for the people of Ukwangali.

The fundraising gala is the first of its kind held in the Ukwangali Traditional Authority.

Hompa Eugene Siwombe of the Ukwangali Traditional Authority has called on residents in his jurisdiction to take ownership of safety, citing a rise in alcohol and drug abuse, theft, and violent offences.

Eugene Kudumo of the Ukwangali Traditional Authority has officially been designated as Hompa of the Vakwangali people and succeeded the late Sitentu Mapasi, who died 11 years ago.
