The Director General of the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation (nbc), Stanley Similo, has emphasised that ethical, balanced, and accurate reporting is crucial for fair elections, stressing that the media play a vital role in democracy by providing voters with the information they need to make informed decisions.

The N$250 million was part of the broadcaster's historical debt, accumulated since 1996.

The Executive Director in the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology says every effort was made to avoid the May 2021 strike at the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation.

The Namibian Broadcasting Cooperation (nbc) Director General has highlighted the integral role of public broadcasters in raising awareness about national development.

This includes showcasing the upcoming third National Skills Competition.

The Namibian Broadcasting Cooperation's (nbc) Director General says four programs that the corporation introduced a year ago have thrived in filling a void within communities.
