In his remarks to the new members of the District Service Commission, the Commissioner of Oaths, the Chief Administrative Officer Mr. Opolot Apollo Bernard admitted to having received a communication from the Ministry of Public Service confirming the appointment of the duo. He noted that the district has been grappling with quorum but now we are fully fledged. With the oaths taken, the other members of the DSC can orient the new members as we wait for Public Service to induct them.
The District Chairperson Mr Geoffrey Alex Ogwal, thanked the 3 members who had been on board and welcomed the new addition to the team citing that their appointments were based on their integrity as civil servants who retired honorably. He cautioned them that this is the hardest job and the greatest test of integrity.
The Chairperson District Service Commission Mr. Tom Odur Anang called for the need to have the new members inducted as soon as possible adding on that the operations of the District Service Commission are majorly about the law. He reckoned that this seat is very hot stemming from the fact that there are high unemployment rates in the third world which lead job seekers to resort to desperate means of getting employment. He was happy for the new addition citing that one can now go on leave while the others carry on work unlike before that quorum was at its minimum.
