UNDP Deputy Resident Representative, Christian Shingiro, says that the ratification of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Agreement opens significant opportunities for Namibian products, especially for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), through reduced or zero tariffs.

Education is the key to accessing opportunities for development presented by both the Namibian government and through the country's natural resources.

This was said by Swapo Party member Verna Sinimbo at Sifuha Village in the Zambezi Region.

The Deputy Minister of Labour, Industrialization, and Employment Creation, Hafeni Ndemula, has urged all employers to review workers' wages annually.

Ndemula, who was speaking at the commencement of Labour Day in Swakopmund, pointed out that some employers are still paying workers below the minimum wage.
