In response to recent utterance of the Minister of Information, Dr. Lawrence K. Bropleh, the National Association of Public Relations Officers in a press release issued Thursday clarified that the Ministry of Information is not the employer of Public Information Officers of Government Ministries and Agencies.

NAPRO in the statement under the signature of its Acting National Secretary General said, "NAPRO wants to remind Minister Bropleh that the Civil Service Agency remains the only legitimate statutory body responsible to scrutinize and validate the credentials of all civil servants throughout the country; including Public Information Officers of Government Ministries and Agencies."

The release furthered, "NAPRO is therefore encouraging Minister Bropleh to take his vain aggression of credentials misconception to the Civil Service Agency; since such an unfortunate misconception has far reaching civil service implications which he does not understand".

NAPRO release among other things called on Minister Bropleh to "stop diverting the public attention from the crucial issue of relocating the suffering students of Kendeja and face the Honorable House of Representatives to answer to inquires of alleged impropriety that has hampered the image of government in the last few weeks".

"It is important to note that Minister Bropleh has been unsuccessfully drumming up a failed campaign at the level of Cabinet to colonize all public information officers under the guise of centralizing and strengthening public information dissemination with vicious motive to replace them with his political cronies from the Diaspora," the NPRA statement concluded.
