AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Public MRI rollout: Namibia inaugurated its first state-owned MRI facility at Windhoek Central Hospital, with government spending of N$49.8m on the machine and upgrades, after over 4,000 patients were referred to private providers in the past five years at a total cost of N$80m. Non-communicable disease push: Keetmanshoop launched a national NCD and oral health campaign linking diet, sugar intake, activity, alcohol and tobacco to chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and cancer—urging people to get screened early. Livestock health funding: Namibia is considering a foot-and-mouth disease levy to strengthen veterinary services and FMD prevention, with a proposed temporary levy paid by both buyers and sellers. Court scrutiny on procurement: A N$122m veterinary cordon fence tender is headed to court after allegations that emergency procurement followed irregular steps, raising transparency and legal concerns. Child health warning: Zambezi region reports a sharp rise in diarrhoea cases and deaths among under-fives, linked to sanitation, hygiene, unsafe water storage and low rotavirus vaccination. Nursing recognition: UK-based nurse Agimol Pradeep won the Aster Guardians Global Nursing Award (US$250,000) for work in transplantation access and organ donation advocacy.
