About Onamishu Village
Onamishu is a village at the northern part of Namibia in Oshikoto region, Eengodi constituency. It is about 10 kilometers from omuthiya. Big towns are very far and people travel long distances for basic services. You can mostly find wambo speaking people but you can also find other few tribes, like san tribe. It is a small village and majority of people practice agricultural activity like crop growing. It is less developed with less concentration of people. People always experience network problems.

Developments
There is a clinic that opens from 8 am to 5 pm providing medical service to people living there. There is also a combined school from grade 1 up to grade 10. Parents take their children here instead of far and expensive schools that they can not afford. District councilor’s office was also built there. Home affairs duties are being performed there bringing this service close to the residents. Church goers were also given an upstairs church that they fail to fill up until today. There is tapped water but those who can not afford it still use wells to draw water for them selves and for their domestic animals. There is electricity but not everybody have access it. People travel long distances in search for power to have their phone charged.
