A group of aggrieved community members under the banner of the Tsumeb Aitsama Madan development project have taken to the streets, reportedly against the exclusion of youth in the employment of the BioMass Plant.

The project is currently under construction along the Tsumeb-Oshivelo road.

Otjiwarongo residents took to the streets in protest against imposed penalties for damaged water meters and irregularities in terms of plot allocation in the area.

Aggrieved residents claimed unfair penalties are being charged, of over one thousand dollars, by the municipality.
