Sources: Zambia Daily Mail and Zambia public holidays (qppstudio.net). Zambia's President, Dr Mwanawasa, speaking ahead of the Africa Public Service Day, which falls today, regretted that commemoration of the day had not been brought to his government’s attention in good time, otherwise it could have been declared a public holiday, and went on to say that “This is an important day which can be observed as a public holiday in future”. June 23rd was declared at the Pan African Conference of Ministers in 2001 as the Africa Public Service Day, an annual event when African countries share best practices, challenges and progress in respect of transformation programmes.
