San youth urged to join policing forums

Ndama Police Station commander Senior Inspector Veiko Sikeso has encouraged previously marginalised San youth in Rundu to join community policing forums as part of efforts to combat crime.

Speaking during an engagement at Ndama Police Station this week, Sikeso urged the youth to get involved in initiatives such as Youth Against Crime and the Women and Men Network.

Most of the youths said they had believed the forums were only for professionals or trained individuals but expressed interest in joining after the engagement.
