The government’s penchant for making a host of bureaucratic appointments continues unabated with the latest appointment of 10 provincial development co-ordinators (PDCs) for each of the country’s 10 provinces.
The appointments were approved by President Emmerson Mnangagwa, with the PDCs expected to assist Ministers of State for Provincial Affairs with “technical and administrative support”.
The appointments of the PDCs are effective from September 1.
Justifying the appointments in a statement issued on Saturday, Chief Secretary to the President and Cabinet Misheck Sibanda said:
The PDCs are, therefore, critical technical actors in the formulation of provincial growth and transformation strategies that are aligned to National Development Plans and will enable Zimbabwe to realise its vision to become an upper-middle-income economy and society in 2030.
The PDCs are as follows:
Paul Nyoni – Bulawayo
Tafadzwa Muguti – Harare
Abiot Marongwe – Midlands
Tavabarira Kutamahufa – Mshonaland East
Timothy Tigere – Mashonaland Central
Josphat Jaji – Mashonaland West
Jefter Sakupwanya – Masvingo
Sithandiwe Ncube – Matabeleland North
Latiso Dhlamini – Matabeleland South
