The National Assembly is yet to receive a formal resignation letter from the Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) about MP Vipuakuje Muharukua, almost a week after he announced he was quitting.

On Tuesday last week, Muharukua tendered his resignation to his party, PDM, saying he was unable to continue promoting the party's virtues and values.

Senior spokesperson at Parliament Sakeus Kadhikwa told nbc News that the National Assembly is only in possession of a forwarded letter from PDM's parliament desk to the Secretary to the National Assembly.

Debate on the High Court Amendment Bill continued in the National Assembly, with various MPs in support of the bill.

The bill seeks to give equal rights to litigants' in-house or immovable property repossession cases.

Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) MP Vipuakuje Muharukua, one of those who supported the bill, however, warned people to be cautious of who they choose to represent them and not be taken advantage of.

Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) MP Vipuakuje Muharukua tabled a motion to address stock theft in communities and assess the effectiveness of current legislative measures.

The motion outlines the evolution of farming as a Namibian value; it also discusses the prescriptive nature of the current regulatory framework against the objective of protecting stock.

The motion lobbies MPs as a source of primary law to assess the extent to which stock theft shakes and destabilises the foundation of people's livelihoods.
