Namibia’s 2026/27 national budget will be tabled on Thursday, marking a key moment for economic direction under president Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, whose administration has advanced reforms such as fully subsidised tertiary education from 2026 and changes to the Psemas-linked public healthcare system.
Speaking to Desert FM, economist Robert McGregor says the upcoming budget must balance expanded public services with fiscal sustainability and urgent job creation.
