PUBLIC SERVICE MANAGEMENT CELEBRATIONS IN TANZANIA


The guest of honour and other dignitaries from the high table who accompanied him stood for a while watching the traditional dance which was entertaining the audience at the ground.

Dalmas Otieno Anyango, and Tanzania’s Minister of State in President Office, Public Service management, Hon Hawa Ghasia






Photo-journalists and camera crews from various media organizations dominated the scene as they seemed busy almost everywhere to ensure that their targeted readers and viewers are contented enough with the information they carried with them. In the photo above a senior photo journalist Mr. Richard Mwaikenda is seen as if helping his colleague to adjust something on his camera.

As concerns with the history of Tanzania’s Public Management Service, the President appointed new Chairperson and Commissioners of the commission in July 2007 at the State House in Dar es Salaam. The commission’s vision, for instance is to be the role model across the world on good governance and provision of good service in the Public Service Management in the country. The commission’s purpose is to oversee and ensure that employers, employment and disciplinary authorities abide by the laws, regulations and principles in overseeing the issues concerning human resources and working on appeals and complaints presented to the commission. According to section 9(1) of the Civil Servants laws No: 8 of 2002, being read together with section No: 14 (1) on administering the 2003 procedures of the Public Service Commission, the formation of the Commission is as follows:- The Public Service Commission is made up by Chairman and members not exceeding six who are appointed by the President. The appointed secretary becomes the Chief Executive and accounting officer.
