The Kangungu family is calling on good Samaritans to assist them with food that they can use as they wait for the burial day, despite assurances from the government to assist with funeral arrangements.

The family from Kayova Village in the Ndiyona Constituency is not able to hold the funeral of the 15 family members by themselves.

Godfried Kangungu, the grandfather in the Kangungu family, states that they survive from hand to mouth, relying primarily on his old-age pension money.

A caretaker for displaced people at the Katutura Youth Complex has appealed to good Samaritans, including the government, to come to the aid of the homeless.

A number of homeless people were moved to the sports grounds in March 2020, during the outbreak of COVID-19.

It was raining and cold on Monday, and the temporary tents provided for them three years ago were wet through.

Many wonder why these people are homeless, where they come from, and why they are not returning to their families.

A destitute mother of five in Sauyemwa, an informal settlement west of Rundu, is calling on good Samaritans to come to her aid.

Siyapa Maria Mayanga, a 37-year-old single mother, moved from Kayeura Village in the Kavango West Region to Rundu in search of a job after both her parents died.

Mayanga only relies on collecting bottles to sell to buy food for her kids, and at times she has to beg for food when she does laundry or cleans yards for the people in the settlement.
