OMEGA 1 – The Omega 1 community has issued a five-day ultimatum to authorities, threatening unspecified action if they are not allocated a dedicated ambulance, among other services remaining beyond their reach or poorly rendered.
The Village Development Committee (VDC) chairperson, Festus Hafeni, voiced these pressing community grievances to Kavango East Governor Hamunyera Hambyuka during the official handover of a newly fenced community cemetery recently.
While expressing gratitude for the razor-wire cemetery fence, which cost the government close to N$1 million, Hafeni emphasised that basic human services must take priority.
“The lack of an ambulance in this community makes it extremely difficult for us to transport fellow community members to the nearest hospital, which is more than 70 kilometres away at the Andara Health Centre, during emergencies,” Hafeni stated.
