Lawyer Kadhila Amoomo has announced the release of activist Michael Amushelelo from police custody.

Amushelelo surrendered himself to the police and was arrested on Tuesday morning.

NamWater has switched on a pump at the Olushandja Dam South Wall Pump Station, releasing water into the Etaka Uuvudhiya Earth Canal, to assist in mitigating the critical shortage of water in villages along the canal.

The water corporation has invested N$3.9 million in the undertaking. 

Offenders at the Evaristus Shikongo Correctional Facility who are about to complete their sentence will now be moved into a home environment, which is the Minimum Units, in preparation for their release. 

From being a gang leader to a free man, arguably Namibia's most renowned inmate, Ninja, is released from prison.

This is after 25 years locked inside the Windhoek Correctional Facility.

A movement calling for the immediate release of arrested activist Michael Amushelelo is growing on social media.

Amushelelo was arrested on Namibia’s 33rd Independence Day.
