He was vetted alongside other presidential nominees, all of whom are scheduled for final parliamentary approval on Tuesday, 1st July 2025, in the Well of Parliament.
The vetting session was chaired by Honourable Mathew Nyuma, Leader of Government Business, who also serves as Chairman of the Committee on Appointments and the Public Service.
The proceedings focused on evaluating the qualifications, vision, and readiness of the nominees to serve in their respective positions of national responsibility.
