The President said this when he sworn-in 16 permanent secretaries, four State House staff and a national coordinator at State House today.<\/p>\n<p>On September 17, President Hichilema fired a number of permanent secretaries and there was a senior government official in an acting capacity in each case, hitherto.<\/p>\n<p>The President said he exercised due diligence before appointing those sworn-in today. \u201cIt is a careful selection process to allow citizens of Zambia to serve their country in their own homeland. That\u2019s the way it should be!\u201d President Hichilema said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been working hard to identify you with this lady here (Vice-President Mutale Nalumango), consulting many people\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He told those appointed that: \u201csince we are agreed that you are the best, it\u2019s left up to you to prove that you are the best.\u201d He added that his government would bring diversity of skills on the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomebody will be permanent secretary without knowing anyone in Cabinet. Without being related to anyone! I\u2019m very proud of that, that we walk the talk to re-unite this country,\u201d President Hichilema said.<\/p>\n<p>The Head of State indicated that Zambians expect a lot from the appointees. President Hichilema reiterated that under his leadership, the past way of running public affairs would not continue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTaking what belongs to the people should and will not continue. We are remunerated \u2013 that belongs to us. [But] anything else that belongs to the people must be left for the people to utilise,\u201d said President Hichilema.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have a dream that once I\u2019m through with this public service, I\u2019ll go away and kneel to my God. I will look back and say \u2018I think we made a huge difference. The country is in a better shape now than where we found it.\u2019 We can do that together!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Those appointed and sworn-in as permanent secretary today are : Meanwhile, Percy Chinyama was sworn-in as the national coordinator for Smart Zambia Institute.
