The sub-national level of government in
Namibia experiences governance problems
that result in poor service delivery. There is a
need to strengthen governance to fast track
the provision of basic services to improve
the social welfare of the people. Good
governance is considered fundamental to
effective service delivery to the people. The
article argues that the governance principle
of public participation is especially critical
for improving service delivery at the subnational
level. Also of critical importance
for effective service delivery is the improvement
of governance structures at the
sub-national level in Namibia, especially in
the Oshana region.
