He also revealed that changes were in line with government’s targets and vision.

“I am appointing another Accountant- General. I know that people will write me on Facebook, but I don’t care. Until I get the Ministry of Finance right, I will not care.

“And I am happy that the incoming one is a young man who is knowledgeable in ICT and an Accountant. So when they cajole me that I have the fourth Accountant- General, I don’t care because we must get it right.
