Good move. Let’s hope he ready to bring real change to the ministry.
Me glad he take time to meet the staff from early.
A proper PS can make all the difference in how things run.
Me hope he listen more than he talk. Staff been crying out long time.
The PS need to put people first, not politics.

From a personal experience, Mr. Okieffe is an exceptionally, kind, considerate and purposeful man. I have confidence that he will bring positivity to the staff and the work that the Ministry does for the people of Antigua and Barbuda. May GOD guide his hand in the documents that he signs off on as GOD guides his heart. Congratulations from one Colin to another
