NAMWATER has announced that they are experiencing an unscheduled water supply interruption due to a pipe break between Ogongo and Oshakati since Sunday.
In a statement issued by the Head of Business Unit North-East, Hieronymus Goraseb, it was indicated that NamWater has been experiencing multiple major pipe breaks.
“Our technical teams are on-site fixing and repairing the pipeline to restore normal water supply,” he said.
He added that there is, therefore, a water supply interruption affecting all stakeholders and customers supplied by the Ogongo-Oshakati pipeline.
The affected constituencies are Elim, Elim South, Oshikuku, Omungwelume, Makanda Offtake, Ongungila Offtake, Okamwandi, Oshikuku Town, Oshakati Town, and Omungwelume Village.
Moreover, he said that if there are critical needs at essential service centers (such as hospitals, schools, and clinics), stakeholders should contact the Area Manager for Operations, Sabbat Hauwanga, at 081 307 7962, or the Acting Schemes Superintendent, Aina Asheela, at 081 333 0354, for possible water delivery arrangements through water tankers to critical institutions.
