Vice President Nangolo Mbumba says the discovery of oil and other strategic resources in Namibia have opened up investments and value chains.

Mbumba addressed the Invest in Namibia session on the margins of the US-Africa Summit underway in Tlokweng, Botswana.

The session was convened by the Namibia Investment Promotion and Development Board (NIPDB).

Namibia's investment policies and protection remain key as the country aims to diversify its economic sectors.

The Omaheke Region is endowed with resources to grow, produce, and feed its own people and beyond.

In his 4th State of the Region Address, the region's governor urged the inhabitants to strive for prosperity, embark on innovative ways, and enter into partnerships to ensure self-sustainability.

The Omaheke State of the Region Address comes as the region recorded a staggering number of 45 children who have died from malnutrition-related conditions since January.
