Communities in Kayova Village within the Ndiyona Constituency in Kavango East celebrated a belated World Food Day.
The day aims to raise worldwide awareness and action for the elimination of hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition.
The Minister of Defence and Veterans Affairs, Frans Kapofi, says the deaths of 16 Shishugho family members should serve as a reminder to those deployed at grassroots levels to continuously access and inform the government to take appropriate action.
The death toll of people who died from suspected food poisoning at Kayova Village in the Kavango East Region has increased to 13.
