department has not been represented. The councils play an integral role
in implementing the central government’s policies and it is important
that such meetings are utilised thought representation from all
departments,” she said.

And western province minister John Kufuna has advised civil servants in Sesheke district to desist reporting late for work.
The provincial minister advised civil servants to desist from reporting late for work.
“This meeting was supposed to start at 14hours,but as usual, civil
servants like to come late and this is very bad. That’s why you have
challenges in your operations because of your attitude of being late,”
Mr Kufuna said.

Board Secretary Venantsius Miyanza told the minister that pupils in the
area have to travel over 21 kilometres to access schools.
