There is much work expected of the Boundaries Delimitation and Demarcation Commission.

This is in line with the Year of Expectations and Elections, as declared by the late President Hage Geingob.

President Nangolo Mbumba emphasised this during the appointment of commissioners for the Boundaries Delimitation and Demarcation Commission.

Article 104 of the Namibian Constitution authorises the President to appoint a Boundaries Delimation and Demarcation Commission every 10 years. 

The Information and Communication Technology Minister, Dr Peya Mushelenga, stressed that the role of the media as the fourth pillar of democracy is indisputable while reminding members of the fourth estate about the importance of responsible journalism.

The minister and his executive team engaged the public and private media houses in the capital.

"You are not just news reporters, but you are custodians of truth, the public relies on your ability to present facts accurately, verify information rigorously, and maintain high ethical standards."

The Minister of Justice, Yvonne Dausab, delivered a keynote address at the Pan-African Parliament, emphasizing the role of civil society in promoting democracy, human rights, peace, and security within the African Union.

Drawing attention to the historical context, Dausab highlighted the long-standing issues of exclusion and marginalization faced by Africans.

The Inspector General of the Namibian Police, Lieutenant General Joseph Shikongo, says it is every Namibian's duty to ensure that the country maintains its status as a democracy, especially when it comes to press freedom.

Shikongo made these remarks at the opening of a four-day training workshop for NamPol regional community affairs, community policing, and public relations officers in the capital on Monday.
