He further urged public officers to double their efforts in supporting businesses in Botswana to help grow the economy of Botswana. He said the Government is aware of public officer’s challenges such as accomodation, transport, overstaying and progression to name a few and emphasised that the Government is doing its best to address their issues.
Minister Morwaeng commended the Public Officers for their hardwork and their service during the COVID 19 pandemic.
Delivering the Welcome remaks, the District Commissioner Ms Angeliah Leano welcomed all to the meeting and highlighted that Boteti District is a vast District with so many villages and it being declared a fully fletched district will make it easier for the employees to service the public. She further pleaded with the Minister to make emphasis on the misconduct of public servants who violate the principles of the Public Service Charter.
