Hon Timuzigu told them that government work with such implementing partners for good service deliver attributing it able leadership of NRM.

The installation and induction ceremony was presided over by Lion Edgar Mbahamize MJF cabinet secretary who asked the incoming president and his wife Ankwase Claire to increase the membership.
