Divundu (1.090 m above sea level) is a village on the south-eastern banks of the Okavango River in the Kavango East Region, Namibia, {{Convert|200|km}} east of Rundu. Divundu has a population of around 5.430 inhabitants and is homestead of the local Mbukushu kings.

On the opposite, north-eastern banks of the river lies Kakutji in Angola, and the two settlements are linked via a nearby border post. Today, Divundu is the third biggest settlement of the Kavango region, after Rundu.

Politics

Divundu is governed by a village council that {{As of|November 2015|alt=currently}} has five seats.[1] Athanasius Ndjamba Maghumbo is the CEO of Divundu Village Council (DVC).[2]

SWAPO won the 2015 local authority election and gained four seats (631 votes). The remaining seat went to the All People's Party (APP) with 68 votes.[3]

Tourism

Game drives to the nearby national park, Bwabwata National Park, are well known for their diversity of wildlife in typical riverine and swampland habitat. Tourists frequent the Ndhovu Safari Lodge which offers boat cruises to the Popa Falls including camping and guided village tours to the local Kamutjonga village.[4]

Notable people from Divundu

  • Raphael Dinyando, (late) former Deputy Minister of Information and Broadcasting[5]
