Namibia has commissioned a water infrastructure project valued at 250 million Namibian dollars designed to deliver 10 million liters daily to Eenhana and neighboring communities by 2037. President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah opened the Ohangwena II Wellfield Water Supply Scheme, which addresses rising demand from population expansion in areas including Omafo, Omakango, and Onambutu.
The installation represents the initial segment of a broader national water program that will advance through additional phases targeting aquifer development and treatment facilities across the region. Agriculture Minister Inge Zaamwani-Kamwi disclosed plans to activate 75 drilled but non-operational boreholes containing potable water while rehabilitating existing wells and constructing 14 earth dams per region.
The government positioned the initiative as essential to achieving equitable access to clean water for remote populations, emphasizing infrastructure development as a foundation for economic advancement under national development priorities.
