Stakeholders gathered in Ondangwa to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Ondangwa-Omutsegwonime bulk water supply pipeline replacement project.

The long-awaited project, costing ninety-one million dollars in its first phase, will resolve water supply challenges in the Oshana and Oshikoto Regions.

The first phase, which started in May of this year, will end in May 2025.

The 17-kilometer stretch from Ondangwa to Oshali village will enable NamWater to improve its water supply.
