A lack of decent housing should be tackled at all ends and should not only be left to local authorities but must be on the national agenda.

This was said by the Chief Executive Officer of the City of Windhoek, Moses Matyayi, who stressed that the impact of flush flood-prone areas is one of the issues his office is looking into to alleviate.

Matyayi was a guest on our sister programme, One-On-One.

Matyayi said that the council has been able to put mechanisms in place and plans with the Disastrous Management Plan, which is a continuous discourse to find solutions.

The Chief Executive Officer of the Road Fund Administration has called on the public to remain calm amid the rising panic, as plans to introduce toll gates along 23 road sections in Namibia will force motorists to dig deeper into their pockets.

Ali Ipinge, instead, says Namibia stands to earn up to N$750 million in yearly earnings to upgrade and maintain its prestigious roads using toll gates, which he insists are common across Africa, Europe, and large parts of Asia.
