AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Criminal Justice: The Judicial Service Commission has restarted the search for a new Prosecutor-General after none of eight shortlisted candidates passed a written assessment, with the top score at 49%—the post has been acting since Martha Imalwa’s term ended in December 2025. Public Health: WHO warns vaping is being aggressively marketed to teens, citing Namibia’s 2024 school survey showing 23% of 13–17-year-olds use vaping products. Local Roads: Walvis Bay’s road woes are blamed on high groundwater, ageing underground services, tough ground conditions and heavy port traffic, after the works deputy minister convened an urgent infrastructure meeting. Water & Climate: A “triple-win” water security plan is proposed for central Namibia as climate pressures intensify. Connectivity: CRAN says it received 624 appeals against its Starlink licence rejection, reflecting frustration over patchy 4G coverage. Mining & Energy: QatarEnergy reports another offshore oil discovery in Namibia’s Orange Basin, while Askari Metals highlights extensive polymetallic mineralisation at Uis and Navachab moves toward underground gold mining. Sports: Cricket Namibia appoints Justin Kemp as director of cricket; Namibia’s women beat Zimbabwe 3-0 in LA28 qualifiers, while the men lost to Zambia.
