Fraudsters targeting students become ever more present during university registration periods.

As such, students are advised to stay vigilant and be on the lookout for scammers aiming to disrupt their finances.

Appearing on the nbc's breakfast show, Good Morning Namibia, Sergeant Fabian Amukwelele from the City Police says theft under false pretence at universities is prominent during registration periods at tertiary institutions.

This includes, among others, promises for reservations for accommodation, and the most common are offers of cheap accommodation. 

Science teachers in the Zambezi Region are attending a four-day training workshop to improve their skills.

The first of its kind, the training is being facilitated by lecturers from the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST), sponsored by Risk Based Solutions.

One of the facilitators from NUST, Professor Onjefu Sylvanus said teachers need the training to have a full understanding of the subject and prepare their learners well to grasp the basics of science once they reach varsity level.
