OHANGWENA governor Usko Nghaamwa yesterday said he will ask government to build houses for the San people living in deplorable conditions at Omundaungilo, approximately 60km north-east of Eenhana, in the Ohangwena region. The visit followed the publication of an article in a local English daily illustrating the deplorable conditions in which the San community of Omundaungilo lived. Apart from housing which would apparently be facilitated by the vice president's office, Nghaamwa said a kindergarten would also be built for the San children. Kamatuka, for his part, said government would look at all possibilities to ensure that the living conditions of the San are improved. The San are found in countries in southern Africa, like Namibia, Angola, Botswana and South Africa.
