The Ministry of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism (MEFT) says they have put aside a budget of about N$3 million towards the development of the Ruacana Waterfalls in the Omusati Region to maximise its full tourism potential. 

The Ruacana Waterfalls have attracted a number of visitors since Nampower opened two scour gates last week.

The opening of the gates was a result of significant rain received in the central and upper parts of the Kunene River catchment in Angola since the beginning of March.
