One day after taking office, the new Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy Leticia Klemens shared her initial plan of activities with the press, saying that first among her priorities as head of MIREME was focusing on an analysis of the sector’s main documents, then making decisions.
“Today I received the folders and I will probably start work tomorrow. I have to review the files and all of the projects already developed by my predecessor,” said Klemens.
The minister said she took the challenges presented by the president at her swearing-in ceremony seriously and promised to make it possible for the entire population to have access to energy.
“The Ministry of Mineral Resources and Energy is very important for the development of our country, both socially and economically. So I aim to expand the power grid nationwide, and make sure that the exploitation of our minerals is sustainable. It is important that all Mozambicans gain advantage from it,” she said.
The president also called on the new minister to listen to the opinions of the public and see them as opportunities to improve services.
