Almost three-quarters of Namibians went without enough food to eat at least once  during the previous year, a recent Afrobarometer survey indicates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the same period, more than six in 10 citizens experienced shortages of cooking  fuel at least once. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proportion of citizens who suffer frequent deprivations of food has risen steadily, to  the highest levels recorded since 2017. Food shortage ranks in the top three most  important problems that Namibians want their government to urgently address.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, nearly two-thirds of Namibians repeatedly went without basic life necessities  during the previous year, placing them in the category of moderate or high lived  poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
