The donation is a welcome gesture as it will go a long way in assisting the affected families,\u201d Andre said at the event.<\/p>\n<p>The donation comes after heavy rains and floods affected over 22,000 people in the northern parts of Namibia earlier this month, with at least seven deaths reported. The Namibian government has declared a state of emergency in the affected areas and has been receiving assistance from various local and international organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Swakop Uranium is a Chinese-invested mine located in the Erongo region of Namibia. It is one of the largest uranium mines in the world and has been in operation since 2017. The mine has been committed to promoting sustainable development in Namibia and has been involved in various corporate social responsibility projects, including education and health initiatives, since its establishment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
