Conference, held in Swakopmund, which aimed to attract investment to Uis. Once recognised as a town, Uis was downgraded to a settlement in 2010 due to dwindling tin output, under-serviced infrastructure, and stalled governance. Now home to over 5,000 residents, Donatus believes Uis is regaining momentum and offers more than just mining opportunities. He emphasised that the settlement deserves to regain its town status, although further investment is still required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is no longer speculative. We have met the key requirements. By the time Namibia holds its next local and regional elections, Uis should once again be recognised as a town,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Ministry of Information\u2019s Erongo Regional Office, Uis is experiencing a revival through coordinated investment, improved services, and the restoration of essential infrastructure\u2014including water supply, healthcare, and administrative functions. This progress was echoed by Mupenzeni Ntelamo, Chief Regional Officer of the Erongo Regional Council, who reaffirmed the region\u2019s commitment to developing Uis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ve addressed the reasons that led to the downgrade. We\u2019re building a self-sustaining local economy,\u201d Ntelamo said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staff Reporter The Chairperson of the Erongo Regional Council, Florian Donatus, has called for increased investment in Uis to restore its status as a town and to ensure it can sustainably support its residents. \u201cWe need banks, we need housing, we need retail outlets.
