Monrovia, Liberia – February 26, 2026 – As a continuous effort to strengthen human resource management across the public sector, the Civil Service Agency (CSA) officially presented Personnel and Credential Verification Reports to the Governance Commission (GC), the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), and the Ministry of Transport (MOT).
The reports were handed over during a ceremony held on Thursday, February 26, 2026, marking a significant step in ensuring data accuracy and workforce integrity within Liberia’s government institutions.

He was keen to delineate the scope of the CSA’s role, emphasizing that its function is to support, not supersede, the operational work of other branches of government.
“We know our limits. We remain within the parameters of human resource management support, in keeping with established regulations, and we have just demonstrated that,” Dr. Joekai stated.
He extended his appreciation to the leadership of the three institutions for their cooperation, noting that their collaborative spirit reflects a unified government commitment to ensuring that public servants are efficient, effective, and productive.
