Untraceable sources, chancetakers, and uncooperative parents are some of the concerns about the ongoing mass registration process countrywide. 

The Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety, and Security is conducting the mass registration outreach programme across all 14 regions of Namibia.

Deputy Executive Director and Chief Registrar in the Ministry of Home Affairs, Jackson Wandjiva, says some people use shortcuts even during outreaches such as these. 

The Deputy Minister of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety, and Security says birth registration is a human right. Hence, parents should ensure that they register their children as soon as they are born. 

Lucia Witbooi said this during her briefing at the Government Information Centre in Windhoek on Wednesday.
