The Editors Forum of Namibia (EFN) has strongly condemned acts that intimidate, harass, or obstruct journalists from carrying out their duties lawfully.

The NMT Media Foundation has renewed its call for stronger protections for journalists worldwide, stressing that impunity for crimes against media practitioners remains a threat. 

The Minister of Information and Communication Technology, Dr. Peya Mushelenga, emphasises media freedom as crucial for public information dissemination.

Dr. Mushelenga remarked this during a government media benchmark exercise between Namibia and Botswana, held in Gaborone.
