Namibian information minister Emma Theofelus says AI technology has created more scams targeting citizens. She told parliament yesterday that officials need fast action against these tech dangers. People face growing risks from deepfakes that trick them with fake videos or messages.

The minister explained that these AI-generated materials help scammers create convincing fakes cheaply. Such content threatens public trust when it appears to come from government agencies or leaders. Her ministry plans several responses, including a system to verify information sources. Officials also want to launch awareness campaigns about misinformation dangers.

Theofelus stressed government cannot solve these problems alone. She asked all Namibians to check information before sharing it online. The minister urged everyone to report suspicious digital activity to authorities. Fighting cyber threats requires effort from the entire country, not just officials. Government agencies must work quickly as technology keeps changing.
