An opposition parliamentarian has put forward a motion in Namibia's National Assembly to declare the nation's urban housing crisis a national emergency. The proposal aims to accelerate the development of urban land and facilitate the construction of 100,000 new homes within the next four years, addressing a backlog estimated at over 300,000 units. This initiative comes in response to rising housing prices and the significant portion of the population unable to afford homes due to low incomes. The motion highlights concerns over the slow pace of land servicing by local authorities as a primary driver of the shortage.
The proposal highlights the severe housing shortage in Namibia and seeks urgent government intervention to address a critical issue affecting a large segment of the population.
