Two kids died after a family ate pap with fresh beans from their field last Thursday. Four children became sick along with their father, Andreas Kasera, who remains in critical care at Rundu State Hospital. The mother prepared food using drought relief supplies mixed with beans they grew themselves. Everyone felt stomach pain that same night.

Joseph Gedion says they wait to plan funerals because two family members still need hospital care. Police opened a case after the deaths of Andreas, age 10, and Joseph Kasera, age 15. Investigators took food samples from the home to find what caused the sickness. The mother and one daughter left the hospital after treatment.

This marks the third food poisoning case in the Ncuncuni area. Local councilor Leopoldine Nseu wants health officials to explain what happens when people eat unsafe food. Kavango West governor Verna Sinimbo asked people to watch food safety during her visit to the family. Health spokesperson Walter Kamaya said the father and son respond to medicine but remain in serious condition.
