In a statement posted on his X account on Friday, Bwala conveyed his appreciation for the President’s trust in him.
He stated, “I am deeply grateful to Mr President @officialABAT for the confidence and trust demonstrated through this appointment.”
Bwala also shared that he felt both humbled and honoured to serve the country, adding, “It is a privilege to work under the esteemed leadership of a courageous Commander-in-Chief and a father to the nation.”
