Real development, the engine that should propel our nation forward, has become a neglected orphan. Resources meant for schools, hospitals, and infrastructure are drained off to fatten the wallets of the corrupt. This is not just theft, it\u2019s a betrayal of the Namibian people, a crushing blow to our collective dreams of a prosperous future,\u201d stressed Kambala.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to addressing corruption, AR continues to advocate for access to land and housing through its Mass Urban Land Servicing Programme.<\/p>\n<p>Despite recent progress in the construction of housing units in Goreangab Extension 4, AR expressed concerns about the pace of addressing the housing crisis, particularly for low-income Namibians.<\/p>\n<p>Kambala also addressed AR\u2019s communication strategy, emphasising the importance of relying on the movement\u2019s official Facebook page for accurate information. He warned against misinformation spread through fake social media accounts and reiterated AR\u2019s commitment to peaceful activism.<\/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.
