A permanent stream runs through the desert from Nababeep northwards towards the Orange River. It is a river of unadulterated sewage that remains as black water for at least three kilometres. Its source: the town sewage works under management of the Nama Khoi Municipality.

The Democratic Alliance (DA) is satisfied with the Party’s performance at the Nama Khoi, Ward 2 by-election yesterday. We are, however, disappointed in the community’s failure to hold the ruling party to account for its service delivery failures in Rooiwal, Steinkopf and Vioolsdrift.
