AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Inflation Watch: Namibia’s 2026 inflation outlook is under pressure as transport costs and global geopolitical tensions are expected to keep prices rising; headline inflation hit 3.1% year-on-year in April, up from 2.1% in March, with transport the biggest driver. Reserves Boost: The Bank of Namibia says international reserves climbed 13.6% in April to N$58.8bn, supported by SACU inflows and foreign currency placements, keeping import cover at about 3.7 months. Border & Migration Reform: The Home Affairs ministry is reviewing Namibia’s 1993 immigration law, with plans for pre-arrival information submission to modernise border management and support investment and travel. Fuel Supply Shake-up: Government says it will keep June fuel prices unchanged by absorbing costs via the National Energy Fund, but fuel procurement for July–September is set to be consolidated with Vitol—sparking questions over transparency and possible conflicts. Food Security Push: President Nandi-Ndaitwah visited the Etunda Green Scheme as work continues on the Etunda Feedlot Project, aimed at boosting beef quality and reducing reliance on imports. Justice & Health: Namibia’s DNA backlog stands at about 7,000 cases, while the Thanzi Programme secured a grant to expand health policy research into Namibia and Zambia. Sports: City of Windhoek won the NALASRA national local authority sports games; FC Ongos Ladies clinched the FNB Women’s Super League title.
