Ministry of Education Arts and Culture's Executive Director, Sanet Steenkamp says that multi-lingual education enhances the quality of education in the country.
Steenkamp said this as Namibia joins the rest of the world in celebrating international mother language day.
The University of Namibia (UNAM) commences its academic year, and students have been encouraged to take advantage of the resources provided by the institution to excel and uphold the institution's good reputation.
About 287 Grade 8 learners who could not secure school placement in the Otjozondjupa Region have finally returned to class.
The learners are now accommodated in classrooms at different project schools in Otjiwarongo and Okahandja.
About 29 schools that were closed due to flooding have been re-opened in Ohangwena Region.
This followed the subsiding of flood waters.
The floods affected 36 schools in the region, disturbing learning for more than 17 000 learners.
A great number of Namibians have gone to the UK over the years under the guise of seeking asylum. But soon, over 90% of Namibian asylum seekers in the United Kingdom will soon be deported back to Namibia.
