Police Inspector General, Lieutenant General Joseph Shikongo, is satisfied with the progress made by the contractors that are building the N$20 million police station on the outskirts of Swakopmund's DRC informal settlement.

The police station is sponsored by Rossing Uranium.

Chief Inspector Ileni Shapumba, the Commander of Community Policing in the Erongo Region, has issued a stern warning to the public against engaging in mob justice and taking the law into their own hands. 

Community members have come to the aid of a vulnerable family that has been sleeping in the open at the DRC informal settlement at Swakopmund.

The good samaritans, among other deeds, constructed a two-bedroom shack and donated a mobile toilet, a tent, blankets, food, and other necessities.
