Kahungu wants pay for Swapo district coordinators

The Swapo Party Women’s Council has proposed that its district coordinators receive monthly remuneration, saying the incentive would strengthen its local structures and support women leading campaigns across the country.

Swapo Party Women’s Council secretary Fransina Kahungu said this at a press conference held in Windhoek on yesterday. The proposal is among recommendations to be considered by the council’s central committee meeting scheduled for Katima Mulilo from 9 to 11 December.

Kahungu said district coordinators currently do not receive regular financial support, apart from occasional tokens of appreciation.
