The Kalimbeza Rice Project in the Zambezi Region remains dormant due to a lack of funds.

This is despite the project having been bailed out in 2020 when the Ministry of Agriculture spent N$7.1 million to keep it running.

The security cluster in the Zambezi Region has embarked on a joint operation for the festive season to maintain law and order in the region.

The Zambezi Vocational Training Centre held an innovation and entrepreneurship day to give trainees an opportunity to showcase skills in their respective trades.

The event, which was held at the Katima Mulilo open market, showcased various items made by students from all fields of studies.

According to Zambezi Governor Alufea Sampofu, not many security threats have been experienced along Namibia's borders in the region since last month, although stock theft is increasing from Namibia to Zambia.

Over 300 students received their certificates at the Zambezi Vocational Training Centre graduation ceremony.
