AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

FATF Milestone: Namibia has been removed from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list after reforms to strengthen anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing, a move expected to boost investor confidence. Local Politics: Tensions at the National Youth Council general assembly in Swakopmund led Minister Sanet Steenkamp to suspend proceedings and postpone the leadership vote amid delegate accreditation disputes. Road Safety & Transport: Protesters on Windhoek’s Western Bypass escalated after transport minister Veikko Nekundi failed to show up for a petition handover, while new data points to alcohol-linked crashes contributing to Namibia’s road deaths. Health & Community: The health ministry says cancer treatment drugs were replenished nationwide, and a Windhoek nurse’s story highlights how perseverance can overcome hardship to fulfil career dreams. Water & Weather: Namibia’s water governance push is gaining momentum, and Fish River Canyon hike access is temporarily closed due to heavy rainfall and dam sluice releases. Regional Ties: President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah and Tanzania’s Samia Hassan signed agreements to deepen trade, investment, agriculture, defence cooperation and SME support. Justice System: Murder accused Petrus Shikwaya’s bail hearing heard allegations he helped fund the acid murder of prosecutor Justine Shiweda using money linked to a Sanlam fraud case.
