Patricia Munyala wants justice for the recent violence against women in Usakos and Okahandja. The Walvis Bay youth leader spoke at a prayer event Thursday, offering comfort to families affected across the nation. She slammed the brutal killings and terror spreading through communities nationwide.
Munyala questioned why communities must live scared, with parents worried about children returning from school safely. She called for local systems through community partnerships to build awareness, trust, create education opportunities, and help people report warning signs. Munyala recalled when police regularly patrolled towns on weekends, creating safety for residents. She noted crime rates stayed lower during those times compared to current numbers. She urged the creation of prevention programs like neighborhood watch groups with direct community input to ensure success and relevance.
The Erongo governor's office arranged the regional prayer meeting together with area churches.
