Kavango West leaders request a fully-fledged health facility in Mururani to address inadequate healthcare access

Kavango West leaders demand a fully-fledged health facility in Mururani, citing an abandoned mobile clinic container that leaves residents without essential healthcare services. The six-year-old mobile clinic container is only used for occasional outreach, forcing residents, including pregnant women and the elderly, to travel long distances to other clinics, often requiring further transport to Rundu. This situation causes significant hardship and delays in seeking medical attention. Regional health officials acknowledge the need for permanent facilities but cite logistical challenges and staffing constraints, with plans to repurpose existing structures pending.
