Africa-Press – Zambia. Always pay attention to detail! I learnt this when I was a cub reporter. Just look at the statement below and the last few weeks ones, you will notice that “Press and Public Relations” title has been dropped and instead replaced with “Spokesperson”. Pay attention!
And then do not pick titles and throw them around with ranking. It all depends what the constitutive position mean. For example, the DMMU “Coordinator” is at Permanent Secretary level but “Coordinator” for Smart Zambia is at Deputy Secretary to Cabinet level..
Director or whatever term can be higher than the title – depending on what powers that office has and authority. Ambassadors are said to be Directors (administratively) but in actual fact they are higher depending on the station they are accredited! That is why you had former Vice Presidents of Zambia going in foreign service as Ambassadors extraordinary and plenipotentially!
