Ohangwena Health Director John Hango expressed satisfaction with the increase in the number of key health professionals, mainly doctors, dentists, and pharmacists.

Hango says Okongo and Eenhana district hospitals, which were previously managed by only one doctor, now have sizeable numbers of doctors.

Okongo now has three, Eenhana has 10, and Engela has 13.

Each hospital has at least one pharmacist and a dentist.
