The minister also urged PCCB to publicize its achievements and educate the public using various media platforms, particularly social media, which has become a vital communication tool.
Deputy Minister Qwaray noted that the visit aimed not only to introduce the leadership team but also to remind staff of their responsibilities and strengthen teamwork in managing national development projects.
“We have come to introduce ourselves and get acquainted. I urge everyone to work with renewed enthusiasm and cooperation to realize President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s vision of delivering development to citizens,” she said.
Speaking on behalf of the Secretary-General of the President’s Office, Ms. Enedy Munthali affirmed that her office is committed to ensuring PCCB receives the necessary resources to complete its tasks on time.
