Education ministry says the overall recruitment into the public service of teachers is at the discretion of the Prime Minister

The Education, Arts and Culture ministry says the overall recruitment into the public service of teachers is at the discretion of the Prime Minister as the employer, on the recommendation of the Public Service Commission. This was said by Acting Executive Director in the MoEAC, Knox Otto Imbuwa in response to demands by unemployed teachers in the Kavango West and East regions, for mass recruitment with immediate effect. The unemployed teachers further demanded for interviews to be abolished and for the ministry to build more classrooms before the end of this financial year while threatening to close down regional education offices if issues are not addressed in 14 days.
