By Own Correspondent|Primary and Secondary Education Permanent Secretary Tumisang Thabela has dismissed as fake a document showing a shortlist of recruited primary school teachers submitted to the Public Service Commission (PSC).

According to the document, the Primary and Secondary Education Ministry shortlisted 1 576 teachers for recruitment.

In an interview with the state media, Thabela said her ministry does not communicate via social media.

However, she said recruitment is ongoing.

Said Thabela:

It’s fake. We don’t communicate through social media. As you have seen my signature is not appended there. I haven’t submitted any list anywhere. There are issues that have to be looked into but we are in the pipeline, am yet to get a briefing on how far the process has gone.-StateMedia
