Rundu locals are pointing fingers at decades of bad planning after floods wrecked their homes. Residents in the Kehemu area say a lack of drainage, bridges, and basic infrastructure made the damage worse. They feel abandoned by their leaders, arguing that their complaints about water management have been ignored for over twenty years.

Town council spokesperson Benjamin Makayi gave a different take, calling it a natural disaster. He stated the council was not aware of rain-caused flooding and noted affected people had not formally sought help. Makayi said the area's landscape makes it prone to such issues and that a technical investigation is needed before any official clarification.

The human cost is clear from resident accounts. Emelda Mwamo lost major appliances like her stove and television. Sylvia Kanyinga described losing her kitchen, leaving families unable to cook properly. Another local, Petrus Muha, mentioned damage to his car and toilet, blaming a failure to inform people where to build safely. The council maintains it will only give a full response after its technical teams finish their assessment.
