Who to Call
The verified numbers and places for emergencies, health, water and town services — and where to go when no number could be verified.
Opuwo has no working council website, so numbers are hard to find and harder to trust. This page lists only what we could verify against a live source, with the date we checked. Where a number could not be verified, we say where to go instead of guessing.
In an emergency
Call the police on 10111 — the national emergency line. For medical emergencies, the district hospital on Mbumbijazo Muharukua Avenue takes emergencies around the clock; it is the referral hospital for all of Kaokoland.
