Prime Minister Elijah Ngurare led the start of construction for a new resource school in Kamanjab, Kunene region, on Saturday. Deputy Prime Minister Natangwe Ithete, Education Minister Sanet Steenkamp, Kunene Governor Vipua Muharukua, and other officials joined him at the event. Ngurare spoke for President Nandi-Ndaitwah, saying they picked Kamanjab because it is central and easy to reach.
The government partnered with a public group to handle the first building phase, aiming for both speed and responsibility. This first phase costs about N$34.8 million and workers will finish it this financial year. Steenkamp called the project more than just a school - it shows respect for every child, no matter their abilities.
She explained that education needs to reach children wherever they live. The resource school represents a new approach to meeting student needs in the region. The ceremony marked an important step for access in rural Namibia.
