Community activist Rosa Namises has called for concerted efforts to fight violence against women and children.

Namises, while speaking at the farewell of Dantanie Eiseb in Windhoek, who was brutally murdered allegedly by his stepfather in Walvis Bay said, speaking out only after the acts are committed is not good enough.

More women and children continue to lose their lives untimely, therefore is a need for concerted efforts.

Namises says Namibians should stand together to prevent these violent acts before they happen.
