Govt. workers warned against drinking on duty

Chavuma District Administration Officer Kennedy Pezo has warned of stern action against government officers found drunk on duty.

Mr. Pezo sounded the warning yesterday at a meeting community meeting where a named officer was spotted to be in a drunken state.

He said officers who are fond of taking alcohol whilst on duty will tarnish the image of government and that the district administration will not hesitate to take punitive measures against such officers according to the laid down guidelines.

He further urged all government officers in the district to ensure they exhibit an exemplary behaviour at all times.
