Moses ǁGaroëb (constituency)

Moses ǁGaroëb (constituency)
The Hakahana suburb in Windhoek

Moses ǁGaroëb is the name of an electoral constituency in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. It was created in 2003 at the recommendation of the Third Delimitation Commission which suggested that the constituency of Hakahana be split.[1] Since then, the suburb of Hakahana falls into two different constituencies.

In 2008 the constituency was named after the politician Moses ǁGaroëb. The eastern part of Hakahana is now called Tobias Hainyeko constituency, after politician Tobias Hainyeko.[2]

As of 2010 Moses ǁGaroëb constituency has 25 642 inhabitants.[3]
