Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>A NEW board of directors of the Millennium Challenge Account-Lesotho II Authority (MCA-L II) has been announced. The board comprises 16 officials. The team is made up of dedicated leaders and captains of industries from various sectors of the economy.<\/p>\n

It is committed to providing strategic direction and stability through good governance. The MCA-L II Board is going to be an independent decision-making body with ultimate authority and responsibility for the oversight, direction and decisions of the organisation, subject to approval of the Millennium Challenge Corporation, as necessary.<\/p>\n

The board consists of government officials who serve in their official capacities and the individuals representing the private sector and civil society organisations.<\/p>\n

There are 10 government board members representing the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning, Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n

Other board members come from the Ministries of Local Government Gender, Natural Resources (Water), Trade, Labour and Employment, Public Service, Law and Justice as well as Defence, National Security and Environment.<\/p>\n

The Private Sector is represented by two members, one representative from the Lesotho Chamber of Commerce, SMME Network and Private Sector Foundation of Lesotho and one from the Federation of Lesotho Women Entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

The civil society organisations are represented through a member of three umbrella bodies representing the youth, people with disabilities and farmers.<\/p>\n

The three umbrella bodies represented are Junior Chamber International Lesotho, Lesotho National Federation of Organisations of the Disabled, and the Lesotho National Farmers Union.<\/p>\n

The MCA-L II Chief Executive Officer will sit in as a non-voting member while the Millennium Challenge Corporation representative will sit in as an observer in all board meetings.<\/p>\n

The MCA-L II Board of Directors unanimously elected Maleshoane Lekomola-Danziger to serve as the Chairperson of the Board. Lekomola-Danziger is the Budget Controller at the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning and holds a Master\u2019s degree in International Economics and Trade.<\/p>\n

She has diligently served the Government of Lesotho in the finance portfolio. Her core expertise is in strategy, planning, policy development, projects execution, governance and financial stewardship.<\/p>\n

With her background and wealth of experience, character, skill, networks and achievements in the public sector, Lekomola-Danziger is well suited to lead the Board in playing its oversight role, lead the Board and govern the business. It is also hugely significant to the Government of Lesotho and MCC that the MCAL II Board has a female Chairperson.<\/p>\n
