PDM member of parliament Winnie Moongo this afternoon brought a motion to the National Assembly to introduce a Sex Offenders Register.Moongo said this motion comes when women and children’s lives are threatened and the perpetrators are “walking amongst us every day”.
This comes at a time when Namibians want to shut down the capital city for President Hage Geingob to declare GBV an emergency in the country.
This motion was supported by Swapo MP Margaret Mensah-Williams who said that it needs more research.
Mensah-Williams also suggested that the issue should be handed over to the parliamentary standing committee.
The parliamentary standing committees are not yet active as opposition MPs are not satisfactory with the processes.
