Residents of Kayengona in Kavango East are concerned about the way 'day visitors' behave at some sections of the river.

They are worried that if the situation persists, it could have irreversible consequences for the area's biodiversity.

The councillor of the Rundu Rural Constituency, Paulus Mbangu, says plans are in the pipeline to develop Kayengona village, some 18 kilometres east of Rundu. 

Kayengona Beach is a popular destination in the village as it attracts numerous visitors, especially during the summer.
