33 students graduated from the NamPower Vocational Training Centre, while 12 trainees were also acknowledged during the ceremony, held in Windhoek on Friday.

Educators, industry leaders, and other stakeholders, including friends and relatives of the graduates, witnessed the ceremony.

She made these remarks at a meeting attended by the educators, from the heads of departments down to the learners.

The Zambezi Bream Festival and Expo, aimed at uniting different communities, promoting local businesses, and supporting economic growth while allowing local vendors the opportunity to sell their products and services, is underway at Katima Mulilo.

This realisation prompted Prince and Pemba Investments, a local business, to provide the vendors with financial management skills for free.
