PRESIDENT Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has appointed six additional members to the three National Task Forces she recently established.
The task forces — on Economic Recovery, Health, and Land and Housing — bring together experts from government, business, labour, academia, civil society and faith communities to collaborate on practical solutions that directly affect citizens.
According to a statement issued by the Presidency on Tuesday, the President made the additional appointments to strengthen the task forces’ ability to drive focused interventions, improve coordination and accelerate implementation in line with national development priorities.
The Economic Recovery Task Force, which initially had 18 members, has been expanded with the appointment of Emilia Uupindi Mutenda and Tudiminapo Shindume.
The President also appointed Dr Mirjam Matheus and Norman Nanuseb as additional members of the Health Task Force, joining the initial 17 members.
The Land and Housing Task Force received two additional appointments, namely Natasha Mbai and Pomwene Esther Shakela, bringing its total membership to 17.
Each task force is mandated to report directly to the President, with clear actions and outcomes aligned to national development priorities.
President Nandi-Ndaitwah expressed confidence in the additional members and wished them well in carrying out their responsibilities.
