According to her “As civil servants you have a duty to make the government better in your offices, become creative, bring out of-the-box ideas that will help in the delivery of the administration’s agenda of prosperity for all Deltans”.
Addressing the issue of promotion, lobbying for better positions and the refusal of postings, the Chairman assured the commission’s determination to ensure that promotions were done as at when due and “when it comes to posting just accept where you have been put as lobbying for positions is strictly frowned upon and will not be tolerated”
