Municipalities and town councils in the Erongo Region also honoured the late President Hage Geingob through a memorial drive.

All emergency response vehicles in the region led the Memorial Drive convoy.

The parade aimed to give residents a moment to reflect on the service the late Geingob delivered to Namibia.

Workers spoke highly of the late president's service and leadership style at the Swakopmund municipality.

The lack of adherence to waste management by some municipalities as well as unhygienic police cells across the country are some of the outstanding issues highlighted in the Ombudsman's annual report.

The Ombudsman, Basilius Dyakugha, handed over a damning report to the Speaker of the National Assembly today.

This year's report has a number of issues of concern, but the Ombudsman is most disturbed by one relating to the environment, as his office is mandated to protect the environment.
