We are in a hurry to deliver community service including social protection interventions, constructing and reconstructing community infrastructures, promoting community-based demand-driven and sustainable development activities, and improving the speed, quality and impact of development initiatives.’’* He noted.

Sylvester Demby, the Director of Admin and Human Resources (DAHR) cautioned the new staff to follow internal guidelines and directives from their supervisors. He noted that the Commissioner has provided a conducive working environment for staff to deliver. *‘’… it is unprecedented for the head of an entity to personally present a symbol of honour to junior staff. He informed them that the doors of senior management are always open for any clarification and support where needed.’’* He noted.

One of the Community-Based Assistants – Nyanga Kamanda expressed her sincere thanks and appreciation to the Commissioner for leading by example. *‘’we are honoured to be part of the Commission and be rest assured that we will work together to record the successes of the rebranding/ Ndomahinalisation strategy.* The meeting ended with a sign of appreciation from the community Development Assistants and Community Based Facilitators.
