At the inauguration of the Nile Petroleum Corporation (Nilepet) headquarters in Juba on March 2, 2024, the Managing Director, Bernard Amuor Makeny, took the opportunity to commend Minister of Presidential Affairs, Bangasi Joseph Bakasoro, for his efforts in eliminating gossip within the Office of the President. This move was seen as a positive step towards promoting a more professional and productive work environment within the government.
Makeny specifically highlighted Bakasoro’s attitude towards gossip, stating that he does not entertain or engage in “Ache Luel, Ache Luel,” a Dinka phrase that loosely translates to hearsay or gossip. By taking a firm stance against gossip, Bakasoro has helped create a culture of trust, transparency, and professionalism within the Office of the President. This not only improves efficiency and communication but also fosters a sense of unity and cooperation among staff members.
The ceremony, which was attended by various government officials including President Salva Kiir, Vice President Taban Deng, Speaker Jemma Nunu Kumba, Chief Justice Chan Reec Madut, Presidential Advisor Tut Gatluak, and Finance Minister Bak Barnaba Chol, served as a platform to not only celebrate the inauguration of the new headquarters but also to acknowledge and appreciate Bakasoro’s efforts in maintaining a gossip-free workplace.
Gossip can often be a toxic element in any organization, leading to misunderstandings, mistrust, and a breakdown of communication. By addressing and eliminating gossip, Bakasoro has shown strong leadership qualities and a commitment to creating a professional and harmonious work environment. This not only benefits the Office of the President but also sets a positive example for other government institutions and departments to follow.
In a political landscape where rumors and speculation can easily spread, having a leader like Bakasoro who values integrity, honesty, and direct communication is crucial. His actions not only reinforce the importance of transparency and accountability within government but also signal a shift towards a more modern and efficient way of working.
As the Managing Director of Nilepet, Makeny’s praise for Bakasoro’s efforts demonstrates the impact that leadership and management style can have on organizational culture. By setting a clear example and holding employees accountable for their actions, Bakasoro has helped instill a sense of professionalism and responsibility within the Office of the President.
Overall, the recognition of Bakasoro’s role in eliminating gossip within the Office of the President highlights the importance of promoting a healthy work environment based on trust, respect, and open communication. By fostering a culture that values integrity and professionalism, government institutions like Nilepet can operate more effectively and efficiently, ultimately benefiting the country as a whole.
