The Teachers Union of Namibia (TUN) will hold a Day of Action next week to review the just-concluded agreement on salary and benefits for public servants.

The public service unions affiliated with the Trade Union Congress of Namibia (TUCNA) rejected the recently concluded collective agreement between the government and other labour unions, describing the process as unlawful and not conducted in good faith.

TUN’s take on free education

The government has committed to fully subsidising registration and tuition fees at public universities and technical colleges starting in 2026.

It has allocated N$663 million for the first quarter of 2026 to fund this roll-out. The national task force on implementing this policy has, however, not fully communicated how this would work, leaving lecturers and students worried as the new academic year looms.

Desert FM speaks to Teachers’ Union of Namibia secretary general Mahongora Kavihua for more.
