Secretary to Cabinet, George Simataa, has announced the appointment of three new Executive Directors in the public service.

President Nangolo Mbumba says it is refreshing that citizens now live in an era in which they have the opportunity to tell their own stories and to appreciate the narratives of Namibians as told from their own perspective.

Secretary to Cabinet George Simataa has broken his silence on his role in the now defunct Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) Bank in his newly released memoir titled ''Timeless: My Career in the Public Service''.

The Chairperson of the Public Enterprises Chief Executive Officer's Forum, Fluksman Samuehl, says for growth to be attained and for the sake of development in the country's state-owned enterprises, the heads of these institutions must be loyal to their companies and not to the appointing authorities.

Chief Regional Officers need to collaborate and share information if they wish to see their plans realised.

Hundreds of public servants gathered in Katima Mulilo to celebrate this year's Africa Public Service Day, held under the theme "The African Continental Free Trade Area will require a fit-for-purpose African public administration to succeed."
