Is Namibia regulating the future - Or restraining it?
By Nashilongo Gervasius
Namibia is at a crossroads. The country stands between two mobility worlds - one fading, one emerging- and its next regulatory decisions will determine whether it becomes amongst continental emergers and adopters in transport innovation or a cautionary tale of missed opportunity.
The rise of ride-hailing platforms such as Lefa, Yango, inDrive and Bolt has forced Namibia to confront a difficult question of, Are we trying to regulate progress, or are we trying to preserve the past?
Around the world, and across Africa, the transport sector has been shaken by digital transformation. For more than a decade, ride-hailing has modernised mobility, upended entrenched interests, and offered safer, more predictable transport for millions of people.
