The government has prioritised upgrading the Okahandja-Hochfeld-Otjozondu-Okondjatu roads to tar as part of the Roads Authority's Integrated Business Plan.

Some of the roads earmarked for upgrading are Omaheke and the Du Plessis-Epukiro road to link to Eiseb Block.

The Roads Authority continues to break new ground and bring services closer to the people. 

So far, it has opened  two new NaTIS centers, the latest being at Tsumkwe.

Namibia is celebrating the life of the remarkable Axali Jakobus Doëseb, who many agree left an indelible mark on the world of music and culture. 

Axali Doëseb, born in 1954 in Okahandja, hailed from a musical family and was a prodigious talent in the field of music. 

Namibia's first community seed bank opened its doors at Sharukwe village in Kavango West. 

The project, which cost more than N$500,000 to set up, was funded by GIZ, MTC, and the Environmental Investment Fund.

Community Seed Banks are used to collect, store, and protect local seeds. 

The late Axali Doëseb was buried at Pioneerspark Cemetery in Windhoek.

Doëseb died at the age of 68 on the 27th of last month.

Family and friends gathered at Pioneerspark Cemetery to bid farewell to the composer and author of Namibia's National Anthem, Axali Doëseb.
