Rundu Town Council’s October salaries delayed

Rundu Town Council employees will have to wait for their October salaries after the local authority announced a delay in payments due to financial constraints affecting its cash flow on Friday.

In an internal memorandum issued on 23 October, the council’s management informs staff members it is experiencing financial difficulties.

“The current financial situation has made it difficult to process salary payments on time,” the memorandum reads.

The council apologises to employees for the delay, acknowledging that the affected workers depend on their monthly earnings to cover essential expenses.

“We acknowledge that this delay may cause considerable inconvenience, uncertainty and hardship to staff members and their families, and we sincerely apologise for the situation,” it reads.

The council says it is working to improve its financial position and make the payments as soon as possible.
