In a press conference held yesterday, the outspoken resource activist, citing yesterday’s front page story in the Post Courier, ‘Chief cracks whip’, called on the chief secretary to apply severe disciplinary measures to incompetent departmental heads and other agency heads for statutory bodies instead of merely talking.
He referred to instances where issues within the gas and petroleum sector where he claimed the department and state had not followed polices, which is now the subject of a decision to be made by the National Court soon regarding the LNG Project Agreement.
Ekenda said the same situation was widespread all throughout the government machinery- something he added all should come back to the chief secretary.
“Sir Zurenuoc should not be just merely talking- he should start cracking the whip to his departmental heads who have already failed the government and the people in terms of the lack of competency to perform to the best of the people’s expectation,” Ekenda said.
“If Sir Zurenuoc can’t take actions and just talking, he should just resign and go home because he himself would be no better than his departmental heads.”
