The police in the Zambezi Region have reminded the public that the United Democratic Party (UDP) is still banned from holding meetings in Namibia.

The government banned the UDP in September 2007, after the party was accused of advocating the secession of the then-Caprivi Region from the rest of Namibia.

The restrictions on the movement of livestock in six northern regions have been lifted.

The restrictions were imposed following an outbreak of the contagious lung sickness called bovine pleuro-pneumonia in February.
