Residents of Katima Mulilo Urban have voiced growing frustration over poor service delivery, lack of healthcare infrastructure and the government's sluggish pace in implementing critical development programmes. 

The Minister of Health and Social Services, Minister Kalumbi Shangula, inaugurated the negative pressure mobile isolation facility at the Outapi District Hospital.

The Health and Social Services Ministry (MoHSS) has put out an open bid for the construction of a state-of-the-art district hospital in Katutura.

The bid calls for bulk electrical services for farm 1024, a portion of the remainder of farm 508, bordering the Havana residential area.

There is a need for Africa to locally manufacture vaccines and fill immunisation gaps.

Currently, Africa imports 99 percent of its vaccines.

Moreover, more than 90 percent of medicines and medical devices are imported.
