AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Banking & Inclusion: Bank Windhoek officially opened its Goreangab Digital Banking Hub at Goreangab Mall, bringing in-person help and self-service banking closer to residents of Goreangab and Katutura, with President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah attending. Energy & Offshore Oil: QatarEnergy announced a new offshore oil discovery at Merlin-1X in PEL 39, calling results the most promising in the licence so far and boosting confidence in Namibia’s Orange Basin. Public Finance Pressure: The Bank of Namibia warned public debt could climb to around 70% of GDP if spending reforms stall, as debt already sits at 65.2% and interest costs bite. Health System Focus: Namibia could see cancer cases rise sharply by 2045 unless prevention and early detection improve, while the National Assembly adopted a mental health amendment bill to modernise care and strengthen patient protections. Local Government & Safety: Windhoek’s Western Bypass speed humps sparked political backlash over whether proper engineering studies were done, with MPs questioning delays and traffic impacts. Housing & Sanitation Emergency: President Nandi-Ndaitwah declared housing and sanitation a national emergency, enabling faster action under disaster risk rules. Corruption Probe: The ACC issued a summons to a health ministry bid committee member over allegations of procurement manipulation and medicine theft.
