As the National Assembly resumed today, Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) MP Inna Hengari was the first to take the floor on the Ombudsman Bill, questioning the appointment process of the Ombudsman.

The proposed law aims to clearly define the powers and responsibilities of the Ombudsman in Namibia.

The Ombudsman, Basilius Dyakugha, has advised the leadership of the Gobabis Local Authority to respect administrative laws to avoid unnecessary infighting that could deprive residents of services.
