President Lungu: All Civil Servants Aged 60 Must Be Retired Immediately

President Edgar Lungu directed new Secretary to the Cabinet, Simon Miti, to immediately retire tired senior civil servants to improve operational efficiency.

“Root out the dead wood, retire all heads of department aged 60 and above. This must be done immediately,” President Lungu said when he swore in Dr Miti.

Presidennt Lungu directed Dr Miti to prioritise the review of the Civil service operations and staff conduct, starting with permanent secretaries to improve operational efficiency.
“We have been using the same heads for quite some time now. It’s time for Fresh minds and Blood”, he said.

Note: We only hope Dr Mitti acts accordingly, let him not be seen supporting his fellow old Friends. Dr Miti is himself old.
