The Chairperson of the committee, Mr Boyce Maneli, thanked the members of the committee and support staff for their hard work throughout the recruitment process. “It is more commendable that the names were agreed upon through a consensus by all members of the committee, irrespective of our political party differences,” said Mr Maneli.
