He was one of the first seven Ovambos to be ordained pastors in Oniipa, Ovamboland, in 1925 by the director of the Finnish Missionary Society, Matti Tarkkanen [fi].
However, the area became crowded, and he decided to found a new settlement for the Oukwanyama people in the woods, 60 kilometres (37 mi) to the east of Engela.
The South West African government made Hamutenya the local head of the tribesmen of Eastern Oukwanyama.

The Independent Patriots for Change (IPC), an opposition party formed in August 2020, obtained 402 votes and gained the remaining two seats.
