AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Men’s Health & Justice: Rape accused doctor Dennis Noa appeared in Ondangwa Magistrate’s Court and was remanded in custody after the state opposed bail, with the case set for a formal bail application later in July; the Ministry of Health says it can’t punish professionals after acquittal but is treating allegations seriously. Patient Safety & Care: An Okahandja State Hospital nurse faces an assault probe after an alleged incident in the children’s ward involving an infant patient’s mother. Public Health & Access to Care: Rundu State Hospital and clinics are reporting a breaking-point shortage of medicines, with the Health Ministry saying it’s a nationwide issue and promising monthly stock updates. Sanitation & Disease Risk: Namibia is still lagging on safe water and sanitation, with about 40% of households lacking adequate sanitation and nearly 7 in 10 in marginalised communities without toilets. Health Equity & Inclusion: A disability expo is set for Omuthiya (28 July–2 August) to boost inclusion, business opportunities, and access to health services. Cost of Living & Health: Electricity relief reduced NamPower’s tariff increase to an average 3.7% from 1 August after N$90m government support, while Windhoek municipal tariffs rise by 4%, adding pressure to household budgets. Community Hygiene: Windhoek’s Mix settlement received sanitary pads for 200+ girls and women, highlighting how menstrual hygiene affects confidence and school attendance.
