The United Kingdom has announced that all Namibian nationals will need a visa before travelling to the UK, including to visit, as of today.

Namibia's government says the country remains a safe and stable place to live, adding that those seeking asylum in foreign jurisdictions do so out of personal choice.

Reports have, however, surfaced that a significant number of Namibians left the country seeking refuge in the United Kingdom.

The UK's Cardiff University has donated N$4 million to the University of Namibia's Ogongo Agricultural Campus, which it used to purchase various pieces of machinery.
